The Council-Republic of Opaloka is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by The Council of Soldier Delegates with an iron fist, and notable for its national health service, compulsory military service, and labour-free parental leave. The compassionate, cynical, humorless population of 8.959 billion Opalokans 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eisneropolis. The income tax rate is 100%.

The thriving Opalokan economy, worth a remarkable 1,497 trillion Volksgelds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 167,125 Volksgelds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Resident physicians are said to have a silver scalpel in their hands, depression sinks in after each election when voters realize they are stuck with these people for years, heartbroken parents are urged to "smile for the camera", and state media insists that The Council of Soldier Delegates is the most fashionable leader in Chicken overlords. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Opaloka's national animal is the Red Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Marxism-Eisnerism.

Opaloka is ranked 19,571^st in the world and 25^th in Chicken overlords for Highest Average Incomes, with 167,125.34 Standard Monetary Units.
