The Awkward Adages of Geektopia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Nijchhōh I with an even hand, and notable for its public floggings, aversion to nipples, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 11.737 billion Kwandoites are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mordecai. The average income tax rate is 96.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Geektopian economy, worth a remarkable 4,374 trillion cryptos a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 372,732 cryptos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

Believers who wear their faith on their sleeves make easy targets in hostile areas, the mood of raunchy movies is often ruined by the sound of babies crying, the constant playing of Merry Birthday on Geektopian radio has led to calls for the song to be classified as a crime against humanity, and senior citizens can usually be found doing heavy manual labour. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Geektopia's national animal is the ass, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Math.

Geektopia is ranked 210th in the world and 2nd in Europeia for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 26,746.44 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
