The Republic of Utopia 12 is a massive, pleasant nation, notable for its burgeoning Penguin population. The hard-working population of 1.2 billion Utopia 12ians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 17.4%.

The Utopia 12ian economy, worth 54.3 trillion Happinesses a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 45,239 Happinesses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Utopia 12's national animal is the Penguin, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

Utopia 12 is ranked 204,802^nd in the world and 36^th in Sub Bituminous Coal for Highest Average Incomes, with 45,239.16 Standard Monetary Units.
