The Republic of Old Emporia is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Elizabeth with an even hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, smutty television, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 13.361 billion Old Emporians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, liberal government prioritizes Education, although Healthcare, Industry, and Environment are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Rapture. The average income tax rate is 66.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Old Emporian economy, worth a remarkable 1,432 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 quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 107,182 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Space research funding has hit a recent high while several military bases are being closed down, the overhead luggage compartment is often full, TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, and couples are discouraged from marrying until they can rank their partner on a scale of one to ten. Crime is totally unknown. Old Emporia's national animal is the Crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Old Emporia is ranked 11,311th in the world and 501st in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 113 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
