The Anarchy of Blogotopia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Ding Dong Daddy with an even hand, and remarkable for its lack of airports, infamous sell-swords, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cheerful population of 41.97 billion Blogotopians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

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

The frighteningly efficient Blogotopian economy, worth an astonishing 16,581 trillion doobies 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, highly specialized black market in Book Publishing and Tourism. 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 amazing 395,072 doobies, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Social networking sites have discussion groups devoted to planning terrorist attacks, black tea is only available on the black market, the government prides itself on being smug and condescending to idiots, and the Blogotopian Intelligence Agency relies on internet search engines to know what is happening overseas. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Blogotopia's national animal is the hepcat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Blogotopia is ranked 290,899th in the world and 874th in 10000 Islands for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -80.85 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
