The Restored Empire of Natopia is a behemoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Emperor Zeal I with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cheerful population of 51.7 billion Natopians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Education and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Environment are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Serradia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Natopian economy, worth an astonishing 24,877 trillion Alerican Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 481,188 Alerican Dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,673,733 per year while the poor average 100,812, a ratio of 16.6 to 1.

Pharmacists increasingly claim they are morally obligated to take long lunches, bridge salesmen line up for blocks to make their cases at Emperor Zeal I's office, the nation's most "productive" diamond mine hasn't been operational for seven months, and foreign nationals who stumble near Natopia are harbingers of war. Crime is totally unknown. Natopia's national animal is the Blue Whale, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is None.

Natopia is ranked 2,061^st in the world and 3^rd in Aesica for Most Developed, scoring 97.98 on the Human Development Index.
