The Constitutional Monarchy of Opis is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by King Carter II with an even hand, and renowned for its smutty television, ubiquitous missile silos, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 2.364 billion Opisians 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 juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valencia. The average income tax rate is 19.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Opisian economy, worth 313 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 132,587 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Escaped birthday balloons are torpedoed out of the sky, sales of disinfectant wipes have skyrocketed, country folk are sent to obligatory boarding schools to learn how to be civilized, and autocrats are persona non grata. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Opis's national animal is the Golden Eagle and its national religion is Faith of the Seven and Trozen.

Opis is ranked 266,033^rd in the world and 5,452^nd in The North Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -217.92 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
