The United Seafaring Powers of Neopie is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Defense Representative Maxwell with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, free-roaming dinosaurs, and compulsory gun ownership. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 4.222 billion Neopians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Neopia. The average income tax rate is 98.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Neopian economy, worth 980 trillion wanepoms a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 232,184 wanepoms, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The Neopia Times is sold out, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, people often complain that they're going in circuitous routes all the time, and intellectual snobbery has the cognoscenti sneering at anyone who doesn't have an opinion on the semiological drift of Umberto Eco's works. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Neopie's national animal is the turtle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Neopie is ranked 142,432^nd in the world and 7,220^th in The North Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 778.03 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
