The Empire Capital of Opiachus is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, vat-grown people, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 9.957 billion Opians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The medium-sized, liberal, pro-business government prioritizes Education, although Industry, Defense, and Social Policy are also considered important, while Spirituality and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Admiralty. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 31.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Opian economy, worth a remarkable 1,563 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 157,015 dollars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 913,421 per year while the poor average 12,759, a ratio of 71.6 to 1.

Leader has declared a weed sticking through a crack in the sidewalk to be the nation's newest green space, burnt-out forty-foot-tall wicker men dot the countryside, tourists often cite 'hiding money in an off-shore banking account' as their main reason to visit the nation, and new homeowners go furniture hunting with crowbars. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Opiachus's national animal is the dove, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Opiachus is ranked 312,014^th in the world and 7^th in Core Sector for Most Patriotic, with 0.47 flags saluted per person per day.
