The Queer Utopia of Liphia is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Rock the Dwayne Johnson with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.265 billion Liphians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

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

The frighteningly efficient Liphian economy, worth a remarkable 1,338 trillion Stonks a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Information Technology. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is an impressive 184,250 Stonks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Rock the Dwayne Johnson has been nicknamed 'Robomop', party affiliation is just as irrelevant as campaign promises, where there's a will there is usually a password manager, and all the world's a stage for Liphian political theatrics. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Liphia's national animal is the Blåhaj, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Pastafarianism.

Liphia is ranked 290,801st in the world and 383rd in Refugia for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -35.06 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
