The Holy Empire of Scrubtopia is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Scrub Scumslayer with an iron fist, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, ubiquitous missile silos, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 14.428 billion Scrubtopians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The minute, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order and Spirituality also on the agenda, while Environment and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Scrub City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Scrubtopian economy, worth a remarkable 2,973 trillion Gold Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 206,125 Gold Coins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 750,807 per year while the poor average 40,222, a ratio of 18.7 to 1.

Musicians are often arrested for saying "oh my God", Rupert Bear is considered to be the most risqué TV programme in Scrubtopia, RPG fans reminisce fondly about when people thought they were evil and dangerous rather than geeky and socially inept, and the navy's new flotilla is gonna be a thrilla. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Scrubtopia's national animal is the Pegaunicornasus, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

Scrubtopia is ranked 32,964th in the world and 2,256th in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 81.04 law-abiding acts per hour.
