The Free Land of Cropstopia is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its strong anti-business politics. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 56 million have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government devotes most of its attentions to Social Welfare, with areas such as Law & Order and Defence receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 34%, but much higher for the wealthy. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Information Technology.

Political parties are banned from advertising and receiving private donations, the government is reigning in public spending, the government is attempting to revitalize a gutted private sector, and marijuana is legal in the privacy of your own home. Crime is moderate, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. Cropstopia's national animal is the cropsies, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the cropsianolos.
