The Vote Rick Astley of Somewheretopia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Rick Astley with an even hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, avowedly heterosexual populace, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 1.107 billion Somewheretopians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rickroll City. The average income tax rate is 66.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Somewheretopian economy, worth 90.8 trillion Rickroll Coins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 81,983 Rickroll Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bureaucrats close new businesses for not complying with the Penguin Packaging Index, comatose jurors are the defense's favorite, five-year-olds chanting "Little Miss Muffet" are accused of bullying arachnophobes, and estate agents justify funky smells by revealing how often the previous owners showered. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Somewheretopia's national animal is the Rick Astley, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Coptic Orthodox Christianity.

Somewheretopia is ranked 292,937th in the world and 3rd in NationStates Railway Federation for Most Secular, with 7.81 Atheism Rate.
