The Gay Socialist Republic of Liliumtopia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Premier Lily Lockhart with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 8.979 billion Liliumtopians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lilygrad. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Liliumtopian economy, worth a remarkable 1,712 trillion Liliums a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 190,725 Liliums, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Giggling teens are asked to put their mouths on rubber dolls, nude art is becoming wildly popular, families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain, and posters on 'Liliumtopian Values' advise against being proud of Liliumtopia. Crime is totally unknown. Liliumtopia's national animal is the Unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Liliumtopia is ranked 218,751^st in the world and 985^th in The Communist Bloc for Rudest Citizens, with 5.47 Insults Per Minute.
