The Sultanate of North Opy is a mid-sized, safe nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 62 million North Opyians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 57.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped North Opyian economy, worth 1.83 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 fairly diversified, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Soda Sales. Average income is 29,437 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. North Opy's national animal is the parrot.

North Opy is ranked 108,482^nd in the world and 2^nd in Boop for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,838.8 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
