The Constitutional Monarchy of Nethertopia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Pieter van Delta with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, rampant corporate plagiarism, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 35.194 billion Nethertopians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Environment, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Peregrinus City. The average income tax rate is 90.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nethertopian economy, worth a remarkable 2,714 trillion Golden Sovereigns a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is 77,123 Golden Sovereigns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Skateparks can be found in every city, all footpaths have tollbooths, the Smalltopian embassy doubles as an electoral campaign headquarters, and bus ads propagandize causes ranging from sexual revolution to religious pogroms. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nethertopia's national animal is the Peregrine Falcon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Nethertopia is ranked 31,198th in the world and 36th in Rushmore for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 897.05 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
