The United Empire of Fruitopia is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by HM King Leopold I with an iron fist, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, prohibition of alcohol, and flagrant waste-dumping. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.992 billion Fruitopians 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.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Beaumont. The average income tax rate is 74.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Fruitopian economy, worth a remarkable 1,283 trillion Fruitopian Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 160,600 Fruitopian Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

People stand their fridges back-to-front to benefit from the free heating, sick Fruitopians are hair today and gone tomorrow, kids leave museums believing that some humans have six fingers, and scaffolding is built around scaffolding to give safe access. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fruitopia's national animal is the Black Panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Fruitopia is ranked 25,138th in the world and 49th in United Kingdom for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 2,931.78 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
