The Byzantine Empire of Constantinolia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Andronikos VI with an iron fist, and notable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, infamous sell-swords, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 8.413 billion Byzantines 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 relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Constantinople. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 20.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Byzantine economy, worth a remarkable 1,722 trillion hyperpyrons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 204,731 hyperpyrons, with the richest citizens earning 6.7 times as much as the poorest.
Women across the country are tying the knot, for just a few extra hyperpyrons Byzantines can get new driving records with their new cars, red rinses are frequently applied to grey hair, and government ministers are regularly seen in the streets confessing their sins and hammering missiles into plow-shares. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Constantinolia's national animal is the eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Catholicism.
Constantinolia is ranked 5,777th in the world and 6th in The Euhemeristic Order for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 6,538.33 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
