The Most Serene Republic of Epyria is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Ephereal The Wise with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.744 billion Epyrians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Epyriel. The average income tax rate is 80.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Epyrian economy, worth 364 trillion Tyrs a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 97,451 Tyrs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The government is notorious for leaving citizens with almost nothing from their inheritance, discarded pennies litter the streets, recreational drug businesses are regularly pruned if they grow above the maximum legal size, and most citizens in Epyria are abject pyrophobes after extremely graphic pamphlets were mailed nationwide by the government. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Epyria's national animal is the Arctic Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Epyria is ranked 161,617th in the world and 61st in Wintercrest for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 441.6 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
