The Federation of Onpers is a colossal, orderly nation, renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, irreverence towards religion, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 5.157 billion Onpersians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The tiny, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.4%.
The frighteningly efficient Onpersian economy, worth a remarkable 1,839 trillion Bits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an amazing 356,690 Bits, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,302,941 per year while the poor average 3,694, a ratio of 893 to 1.
The Counter-Terrorism Unit has been nicknamed "Big Bad Wolf" for its tendency towards urban demolition, citizens who don't recite the Pledge of Onpers at least three times a day are placed on a terrorist watch-list, crocodile roadkill is smeared across the asphalt of the new Formula One track, and a petition to improve Onpersian literacy is mostly signed with cross-marks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Onpers's national animal is the Shadowtrooper, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Onpers is ranked 32,732nd in the world and 567th in The North Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 5,083.19 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
