The Scientific Utopia of Thingytown is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Katie Night with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, sprawling nuclear power plants, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 21.852 billion Thingytownians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Industry, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nekopolis. The average income tax rate is 95.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Thingytownian economy, worth a remarkable 4,086 trillion Monies a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 187,013 Monies, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Atheism is seen as a prerequisite for political power, homophobia is off the menu, Katie Night's new android secretary is the latest media darling, and families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain. Crime is totally unknown. Thingytown's national animal is the Penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Science.

Thingytown is ranked 289,237th in the world and 55th in Sparkalia for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 1,700.58 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
