The Dominion of Shrewtopia is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by A Benevolent Shrew with an iron fist, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, ubiquitous missile silos, and lack of airports. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 41.411 billion Shrewtopians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, well-organized government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Environment, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Meat Factory. The average income tax rate is 98.4%.

The strong Shrewtopian economy, worth a remarkable 5,645 trillion Pleasants 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, extremely specialized black market in Gambling and Arms Manufacturing. 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 impressive 136,335 Pleasants, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 620,467 per year while the poor average 18,313, a ratio of 33.9 to 1.

Literally voiceless people are unable to protest when food and water are denied to them, perverts across the land rejoice after 'sexual harassment' was recently renamed 'persuasive courting', there is a law against "filthy foreign food", and bins outnumber trees in city parks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Shrewtopia's national animal is the Shrew, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Shrew Worship.

Shrewtopia is ranked 36,238th in the world and 2nd in Land of King Kongs and Emperor Penguins for Most Stationary, with 1,246.72911181508 days.
