The Empire of Neo-liberal Oppression is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Emperor Leopold III with an iron fist, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, triple-decker prams, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 18.463 billion Neo-liberal Oppressionians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The minute, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, with Industry and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Environment and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Corporate HQ. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Neo-liberal Oppressionian economy, worth a remarkable 5,421 trillion Credits a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Gambling, and Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 293,656 Credits, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,735,386 per year while the poor average 2,834, a ratio of 965 to 1.

Pristine wilderness has been trashed in the quest for cheaper oil, the nation's counterintelligence budget is all up in the air, doctors accused of having no heart reply that cardiology isn't their speciality, and being wrong on the internet has been classified as digital terrorism. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Neo-liberal Oppression's national animal is the Slave, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Fundamentalist Calvinism.

Neo-liberal Oppression is ranked 6,504th in the world and 8th in The Alliance of Dictators for Most Stationary, with 2,886.9381523584 days.
