The Republic of Towopia is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, rampant corporate plagiarism, and ban on automobiles. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 1.413 billion Towopians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The medium-sized, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 66.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Towopian economy, worth 203 trillion towoes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 143,704 towoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Scenic mountain valleys are flooded with water as damming projects get underway, bands of paramedics walk the streets looking for suspicious medical activity, giggling elementary school newspaper reporters want to know why Leader is a silly poophead, and the government is raising the stakes on mental health to beat the odds of addiction. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Towopia's national animal is the beaver, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Towopia is ranked 23,623rd in the world and 12th in The Citrus Sea for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 284.28 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
