The Empire of Naypyidaw is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, pith helmet sales, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 19.469 billion Naypyidawians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 69.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Naypyidawian economy, worth a remarkable 2,730 trillion golds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 140,273 golds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Politicians and casino owners who so much as wander into the same room are arrested on the spot, women tell their friends they've been on crash diets rather than admit they were pregnant and have had terminations, young girls aren't having a ball but they are enjoying themselves, and the nation thirsts for new freedoms. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Naypyidaw's national animal is the elephant, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Naypyidaw is ranked 158,310th in the world and 5,990th in Osiris for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 302.1 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
