The Cast Resurrect Magicians of Pope Hope is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by High Queen Pope Hope IV with a fair hand, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 45.209 billion Hopians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hotopia. The income tax rate is 100%.

The powerhouse Pope Hopean economy, worth a remarkable 9,660 trillion hosts a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 213,687 hosts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Bemused citizens are encouraged to sing foreign-language hymns of religions they have never heard of, advertisements read like science journal articles complete with extensive references, the government is funding experimental battery technology while the power grid continues to crumble, and online weather reports are predicting five years of glorious sunshine for Pope Hope. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pope Hope's national animal is the mourning dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Pope Hope is ranked 66,474th in the world and 31st in Nasicournia for Most Stationary, with 725.06271651512 days.
