The Borderlands of Robo Topia is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Mr Robot with a fair hand, and notable for its frequent executions, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 7.353 billion Robo Topians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government prioritizes Administration, with Education, Law & Order, and Environment also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of X-01. The average income tax rate is 76.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Robo Topian economy, worth 855 trillion Gold Coins a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 116,245 Gold Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Some achieve retirement and some have retirement thrust upon them, citizens may cast their vote over the internet or phone, the tax agency is feared more than serial killers and terrorists, and business meetings across the country are interrupted by the sound of squeaking whoopee-cushions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Robo Topia's national animal is the Penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Any.

Robo Topia is ranked 15,116th in the world and 12th in Sparkalia for Most Developed, scoring 88.45 on the Human Development Index.
