“And the one who most distinguished himself was Brasidas”

The Free Polis of Brasidean Amphipolis is a massive, economically powerful nation, ruled by Brasidas with an iron fist, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 2.251 billion are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business morass -- juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Public Transport. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Amphipolis. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 39%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Gambling industries.

Brasidean Amphipolis has become a gigantic dustbowl filled with tourists and mean desperados, citizens rise at daybreak every day for mandatory exercise, citizens must pay to enjoy Brasidean Amphipolis's pristine beaches, and young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables. Crime is pervasive. Brasidean Amphipolis's national animal is the helot, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is cult of Brasidas, and its currency is the perioeci.

Brasidean Amphipolis is ranked 2nd in the region and 1,979th in the world for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry.
