The Grand Duchy of Bostopia is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by The Duke with an iron fist, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, unlimited-speed roads, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 47.062 billion Bostopians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order is also considered important, while Social Policy and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Newfort. The average income tax rate is 39.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Bostopian economy, worth an astonishing 11,192 trillion Bostopian Pounds a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 237,826 Bostopian Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Death is nobody's business, the government expresses surprisingly intense opinions on the use of whip pans, Dàguó is simultaneously dead and alive, and workers tend to schedule naps during all-hands meetings. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Bostopia's national animal is the Bostopian Otter, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Bostopia is ranked 5,608th in the world and 5th in Anaia for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 16,401.48 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
