Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Holy Empire of Nepton V is a massive, safe nation, ruled by General Helghan with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-working, cynical population of 2.671 billion 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 enormous government devotes most of its attentions to Defence, with areas such as Social Equality and Social Welfare receiving almost no funds by comparison. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 20%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry.

A National Academy regulates grammar and usage, a fashion designer has been arrested for inciting hatred after claiming redheads couldn't pull off vermillion, most citizens in Nepton V are abject pyrophobes after extremely graphic pamphlets were mailed nationwide by the government, and motorists' locations are constantly tracked by intelligence and law enforcement agencies. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is well under control, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Nepton V's national animal is the 2 headed bull, its national religion is Art of War, and its currency is the silver coin.

Nepton V is ranked 1,980th in Osiris and 76,627th in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -2 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
