The Confederacy of Land Of Opportunity is a huge, safe nation, ruled by Adolf Stalin with an iron fist, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, irreverence towards religion, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 798 million Opportunityians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stalingrad. The average income tax rate is 66.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Land Of Opportunityian economy, worth 91.5 trillion bitcoins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 114,699 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.
Pregnant hitchhikers with signs requesting rides to "competent care" are a common sight on Land Of Opportunityian roads, it is not politically correct to suspect that a serially convicted burglar might steal again, young girls and senior citizens alike can be spotted wearing colourful short shorts, and there is a growing belief that consciousness is a simulated illusion within a computer-generated reality. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Land Of Opportunity's national animal is the axolotl, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Land Of Opportunity is ranked 50,271st in the world and 1st in The Real Christmas for Most Patriotic, with 31.62 flags saluted per person per day.
