Olympus is a moribund salon full of bored Gods, sick of the Ambrosian diet.

It's famous for its forward-thinking social policies and - especially - for its financial services. It used to be known for its steel industry and it still boasts one of the most important media groups in the world. But it's certainly not known either for soccer or unemployment.
