The Federal Republic of United Epirus is a large, cultured nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 104 million United Epirusians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 49.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish United Epirusian economy, worth 2.07 trillion Drachmas a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Automobile Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 19,884 Drachmas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nationalised Arms Manufacturing Industry is not interested in making weapons, the roar of the Niagara 3000 mega-loo can be heard several blocks away, extreme hiring regulations mean a job in United Epirus is often a lifetime appointment, and superfoods are often seen as supervillains. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. United Epirus's national animal is the Eagle of Zeus, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

United Epirus is ranked 244,707^th in the world and 209^th in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 828.4 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
