The Holy Empire of Antioch Omaha is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Sovereign with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, infamous sell-swords, and ban on automobiles. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 8.811 billion Antioch Omahans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mesopotamia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 73.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Antioch Omahan economy, worth 928 trillion gold coins a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Soda Sales, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 105,423 gold coins, with the richest citizens earning 6.5 times as much as the poorest.

Tourists are denied entry because of a distant relative married to a Lilliputian, mystics are claiming that a simultaneous rise in scepticism and education budgets is correlation rather than causation, politicians cheer the nation's surging death rate, and elections have become procedural nightmares due to voters persistently rejecting candidates. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Antioch Omaha's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Melchizedek Order.

Antioch Omaha is ranked 40,209^th in the world and 11^th in Ancient for Lowest Crime Rates, with 77.6 law-abiding acts per hour.
