The Tribunal Consortium of Stopiang is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Consul Epiphania Apeirogius III with an even hand, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, otherworldly petting zoo, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 3.336 billion Stopiangese have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Novus Parasinoupoli. The average income tax rate is 70.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Stopiangese economy, worth 250 trillion thryans a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 74,990 thryans, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, bike rage is all the rage, bemused citizens are encouraged to sing foreign-language hymns of religions they have never heard of, and undersea volcanoes receive strongly worded letters for violating environmental regulations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Stopiang's national animal is the Luminous Sky Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Stopiang Orthodox.
Stopiang is ranked 30,639th in the world and 8th in Poschomenia for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 5,272.86 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
