The Epic collecting nation of WopRuthIen is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Billy Talent with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory vegetarianism, prohibition of alcohol, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, cheerful population of 40.969 billion Wopiens are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Underground Play Toy. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient WopRuthIenian economy, worth a remarkable 7,937 trillion irishes 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 led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 193,747 irishes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Staffers take uppers in the old upper house chamber, Billy Talent has been nicknamed 'Robomop', goldfish bowls are three metres in diameter, and old people living in plastic bubbles complain about a new type of social isolation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. WopRuthIen's national animal is the monster guinea pig, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is the heady heights of Tran-duc.

WopRuthIen is ranked 4,574^th in the world and 9^th in The Kodiak Republic for Highest Poor Incomes, with 169,435.42 Standard Monetary Units.
