The Weaponized Armed Nation of Vylixan Opla is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Goro Nyudo Masamune with an iron fist, and remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, rampant corporate plagiarism, and ban on automobiles. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 13.387 billion Vylixan Oplans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Weaponpolis. The average income tax rate is 36.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Vylixan Oplan economy, worth a remarkable 1,954 trillion Steels a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Gambling, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 146,030 Steels, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Scientists are researching the best way to kill off humanity to prevent catastrophic war, pop stars who make it big overseas are hailed as economic heroes, every child sleeps with a gun to protect themselves from the monster under the bed, and the nation frequently scolds its subject territories for staying up past bedtime. Crime is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Vylixan Opla's national animal is the Swordfish, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is Sikhism.

Vylixan Opla is ranked 328,402nd in the world and 1st in The Armoury for Nicest Citizens, with 0.22 average smiles per day.
