The Plains of Ophineia is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Emperor Iskander with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and hatred of cheese. The compassionate, devout population of 2.605 billion Ophineians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lake Avalonia. The average income tax rate is 69.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Ophineian economy, worth 257 trillion Ophineian florins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 98,696 Ophineian florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Teenage male videogamers often suffer repetitive strain wrist injuries, families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain, online terrorists are automatically assigned adverts for cheap balaclavas, and when flight control tells pilots to alter course the usual reply is "No, YOU move!". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ophineia's national animal is the Ophineian Harvest Mouse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Ophineian paganism.

Ophineia is ranked 241,177th in the world and 200th in The Land of Kings and Emperors for Most Stationary, with 21.44152794408 days.
