The Glorious Errorian City-State of Erroropolisish Paradystopia is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Error Message with an iron fist, and notable for its unlimited-speed roads, absence of drug laws, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.172 billion Erroropolis-based Paradystopi 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 19.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Erroropolisish Paradystopi economy, worth 279 trillion Paradystopi Chunks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Retail, Soda Sales, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 128,499 Paradystopi Chunks, with the richest citizens earning 5.0 times as much as the poorest.

Frat-house partying has become the national pastime, skyscrapers get built in just days, songs of praise to Error Message are filled with coded messages from the resistance, and jails have become colloquially known as 'vampire houses'. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Erroropolisish Paradystopia's national animal is the Rockhopper Penguin, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Erroropolisish Paradystopia is ranked 63,424th in the world and 26th in Esportiva for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,610.49 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
