The Prefecture of Nanpo is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Governor Oda Hideyoshi with an even hand, and renowned for its unlimited-speed roads and compulsory military service. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 8.955 billion Nanpoans 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Takayama. The average income tax rate is 18.9%.

The Nanpoan economy, worth 518 trillion yen a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Automobile Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 57,884 yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

On graduation day the hats thrown in the air fly high enough to stun passing pigeons, drawing men's naughty bits isn't considered to be art, the nation's leader is normally just referred to as "snuggle-wuggle-huggy-bear", and when electric cars arrived nobody heard them coming. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nanpo's national animal is the dolphin and its national religion is Shintō.

Nanpo is ranked 247,915^th in the world and 2^nd in Nippon for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -6.24 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
