OverviewPoliciesPeopleGovernmentEconomyRankTrendCards

The Republic of Old Emporia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Elizabeth with an even hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 13.173 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, although Healthcare, Industry, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Rapture. The average income tax rate is 62.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Old Emporian economy, worth a remarkable 1,393 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 major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 105,806 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Convicts released after being found "wrongfully imprisoned" are surprisingly chill about the whole thing, glittering new sports stadiums adorn every city and town, nature reserves often contain artificial waterfalls and concrete paths, and legislators must raise their hands if they want to speak. 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 11,709th in the world and 527th in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 111 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
