The United Empire of Fruitopia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by HM King Leopold I with an iron fist, and remarkable for its smutty television, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.943 billion Fruitopians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Beaumont. The average income tax rate is 74.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Fruitopian economy, worth 454 trillion Fruitopian Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 154,269 Fruitopian Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Mandatory spouse selection pairs elderly apparatchiki with stunningly beautiful supermodels, pollution is on the rise along with government approvals of fracking projects, the government regularly hires contractors to construct high rise apartments, and class clowns are frequently listed among the most dangerous criminals in the nation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fruitopia's national animal is the Black Panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Fruitopia is ranked 44,067th in the world and 95th in United Kingdom for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 4,348.91 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
