The Free Land of Fizzopolis is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Fizz with an even hand, and notable for its lack of airports, soft-spoken computers, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful population of 8.695 billion Fizzopolisians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Celandin. The average income tax rate is 99.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Fizzopolisian economy, worth a remarkable 1,627 trillion coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 187,146 coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Diplomats are always trying to convince other nations to adopt l33t speak, park rangers perform full-body searches on suspected fungus smugglers, crowds of flag-burning protesters tend to accidentally become crowds of burning protesters, and physics lessons mostly involve talking about emotional management techniques. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fizzopolis's national animal is the honeybee, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Fizzopolis is ranked 3,169th in the world and 23rd in The Leftist Assembly for Lowest Crime Rates, with 128.65 law-abiding acts per hour.
