The Golden Imperial Federation of PsiCorps is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by King Proselyte Nikolai I with an even hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, compulsory military service, and infamous sell-swords. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 5.755 billion Epsilonians 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 enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moscow. The average income tax rate is 88.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Epsilonian economy, worth 755 trillion Epsilonian Yurions a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 131,256 Epsilonian Yurions, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The military is on a massive recruiting drive in advance of an invasion of Brasilistan, the end of autumn is celebrated with a bonfire of designer bags, there's more than one way to skin a diplomat, and the voyages of obsolete star-trekking satellites on deliberate escape orbits are only just beginning. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. PsiCorps's national animal is the Epsilonian Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Orthodoxy ☦.

PsiCorps is ranked 22,312^th in the world and 530^th in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 263.41 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
