The Fiefdom of Nulfopia is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its smutty television, hatred of cheese, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 1.58 billion Nulfopians 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 prioritizes Education, with Environment, Healthcare, and Industry also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 90.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nulfopian economy, worth 168 trillion Scheins a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an impressive 106,548 Scheins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The only things written in the stars are arrest warrants for astrologers, a mushroom a day keeps the sadness away, picnickers are lucky if a few wasps are the only animals that trouble them, and political shows are fit for purpose. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nulfopia's national animal is the Waschbär, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Nulfopia is ranked 10,146th in the world and 9th in Kelios for Most Developed, scoring 90.49 on the Human Development Index.
