The Anarchy of Blogotopia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Ding Dong Daddy with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, ban on automobiles, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, cheerful population of 41.975 billion Blogotopians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Blogotopia City. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Blogotopian economy, worth an astonishing 16,604 trillion doobies a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, highly specialized black market in Book Publishing and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 395,580 doobies, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

One does not simply walk into the tundra, ersatz chicken has left the nation's citizens with a bad taste in their mouths, politicians tend to speak more loudly and slowly these days, and elections have become procedural nightmares due to voters persistently rejecting candidates. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Blogotopia's national animal is the hepcat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Blogotopia is ranked 291,840th in the world and 873rd in 10000 Islands for Safest, scoring 1.34 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
