The MACEDONIAN EMPIRE of Orestida is a behemoth, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The cynical population of 50.175 billion Orestidans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous government prioritizes Welfare, although Healthcare, Education, and Defense are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 63.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The enormous but inefficient Orestidan economy, worth a remarkable 1,484 trillion Denars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 29,578 Denars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Orestida's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Orestida is ranked 17,030^th in the world and 1^st in Moldova for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 3,491.25 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
