The Merseyrail of Somewheretopia is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Steve Rotherham with an even hand, and notable for its triple-decker prams, ban on automobiles, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 917 million Somewheretopians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lime Street. The average income tax rate is 38.8%.

The strong Somewheretopian economy, worth 63.8 trillion pounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 69,612 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Troublemakers boast about how many times they have to visit their therapist, victims of crime are viewed as less trustworthy than politicians, victims of limb-mauling industrial accidents are told to keep working with their remaining hand, and teams of painters are converting road signs from horse lengths to kilometers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Somewheretopia's national animal is the Class 777, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Somewheretopia is ranked 187,734^th in the world and 350^th in The UMNS for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 6,436.02 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
