The Ampean Empire of Epirot is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Various with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, free-roaming dinosaurs, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 6.135 billion Ampeans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government prioritizes Law & Order, with Defense, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ambio. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.9%.

The very strong Ampean economy, worth 387 trillion Peanis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. Average income is 63,087 Peanis, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.

Bars are packed at all hours, books are so highly regarded in Epirot that libraries are often revered as holy shrines, at least 1% of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs budget goes to Various's wardrobe, and the children of Epirot are often remarked upon for their cheery attitude to extreme violence. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Epirot's national animal is the Cabrioan Swordfish, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is Illushism.

Epirot is ranked 50,324^th in the world and 11^th in Gravy for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 5,424.08 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
