The Commonwealth of Utopian Island is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 277 million Utopians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Spirituality, although Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Environment and International Aid are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.1%.

The thriving Utopian economy, worth 21.3 trillion bobars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Automobile Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 76,763 bobars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 271,717 per year while the poor average 15,658, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Utopian Island's national animal is the Utopian Sheperd, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Utopian Island is ranked 146,822^nd in the world and 362^nd in the Plains of Perdition for Most Patriotic, with 12.13 flags saluted per person per day.
