The Nice Warm Glass of Shutthehellup is a massive, socially progressive nation senselessly located in the Axis of Absurdity region. It is, inexplicably, a member of the United Nations. Shutthehellup's current UN Category is Civil Rights Lovefest.

However, it has been classified as a Scandinavian Liberal Paradise, Left-Leaning College State, New York Times Democracy, Left-Wing Utopia, Liberal Democratic Socialists, Democratic Socialists, Inoffensive Centrist Democracy, and Anarchy at various points in its history.

Penguins and Milk and Books... Oh my!

The Nice Warm Glass of Shutthehellup's main industry is currently book publishing, although the private sector as a whole is tiny and private enterprise was completely illegal until quite recently. The wealthy and businesses are still generally viewed with suspicion. The average income tax rate is 100%.

Thousands of double-headed penguins (the official animal of Shutthehellup) freely roam the streets of most major cities, which is quite convenient, since Double-Headed Penguin Foie Gras Ice Cream is the #1 dish eaten by adults and children alike.

Foreign observers often note the rampant youth-related crime, however, this is slightly misleading, since under the extraordinarily liberal Shutthehellup law code, most things which are considered crimes in nearby nation-states are entirely legal. There are only three prisons in the entire country, a remarkably low number for such a massive population, with one entirely dedicated to housing prisoners serving the mandatory 2-month sentence for failing to comply with Section 66.82 of the Shutthehellup legal code, which requires mandatory participation in the annual Kiss a Double-Headed Penguin Day.
