The Eco-Autarchic City-State of Nafplio is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Thomas Kapodikis with an iron fist, and notable for its smutty television, punitive income tax rates, and compulsory gun ownership. The cynical population of 6.63 billion Nafpliots are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vouleftiko Ktirion. The average income tax rate is 69.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nafpliotic economy, worth 764 trillion Phoenixian Coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 115,254 Phoenixian Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A faint smell of body odour can be detected at several miles' distance from the National Science Park, wildlife near farms is slowly becoming extinct, acute politicians deride opposition members for being obtuse, and literally voiceless people are unable to protest when food and water are denied to them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nafplio's national animal is the Two-Headed Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Orthodox Christianity.

Nafplio is ranked 313,520th in the world and 17,226th in Osiris for Safest, scoring 8.7 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
