The B-Rushing Union of Gopnikiya is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Gopnikian Peoples Party with a fair hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, infamous sell-swords, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, democratic population of 12.754 billion Gopniks are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kievley. The average income tax rate is 87.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Gopnikian economy, worth a remarkable 1,419 trillion AVP drops 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 Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 111,329 AVP drops, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bad punctuation has come to a full stop, Gopnikiya isn't what it used to be, strict term limits have been applied to all elected offices, and droves of former desperados are applying to join the border police. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gopnikiya's national animal is the lesser-spotted squatting brown bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Secularism.

Gopnikiya is ranked 33,479^th in the world and 402^nd in Europe for Lowest Crime Rates, with 80.79 law-abiding acts per hour.
