The Republic of Towopia is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, avowedly heterosexual populace, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 1.407 billion Towopians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The medium-sized, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 66.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Towopian economy, worth 200 trillion towoes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 142,820 towoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Towopians believe the only thing that will make you happy is being unhappy with who you are, real men are endangered, all mines are gold mines thanks to life insurance, and dubiously qualified Skandilundian barristers keep referring to laws as 'government guidelines'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Towopia's national animal is the beaver, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Towopia is ranked 91,249th in the world and 28th in The Citrus Sea for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,043.27 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
