The Mother Father Gentleman of Lemmingtopias is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by The Holy Lemmingtopian Imperator with a fair hand, and renowned for its complete lack of prisons. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 12.92 billion enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Education, and Social Equality. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lomapolis. The average income tax rate is 95%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Gambling industry, followed by Book Publishing and Tourism.

Citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes, the government has begun selling heroin and ecstasy to help fund its projects, the "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The Lomapolis Times is sold out, and government officials have to mortgage their homes to make ends meet. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is crippling, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. Lemmingtopias's national animal is the Lemming, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, its national religion is the Way of Gaia, and its currency is the Jelly Tot.

Lemmingtopias is ranked 7th in Atlantis and 3,838th in the world for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 105 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
