The Republic of Old Emporia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Elizabeth with an even hand, and notable for its ban on automobiles, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 13.433 billion Old Emporians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The medium-sized, liberal government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Industry, and Environment also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Rapture. The average income tax rate is 66.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Old Emporian economy, worth a remarkable 1,439 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 107,192 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
RPG fans reminisce fondly about when people thought they were evil and dangerous rather than geeky and socially inept, where there's a will there is usually a password manager, the immigration office has an express line for people bringing cash in briefcases, and it is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws. Crime is totally unknown. Old Emporia's national animal is the Crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Old Emporia is ranked 193,966th in the world and 4,012th in The North Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 1.62 kickbacks per hour.
