A belief held by some Americans that everything is better in Europe. A play on the word 'utopia', only discernible in written form.
Low crime rates, good education, cultured citizens, and legal weed? Yeah, sounds like a real EUtopia.

Get the Entopia mug.etopia, refers to a socially idealistic society, void of any form of authoritative governing body political, religious or economical. The economical system practiced in etopia is the free idéaliste-équilibré economy. which is the opposite to that of Sir Thomas mores Utopia. Mores utopia, makes reference to a society governed by a highly centralized and authoritative state institution, with a strong state welfare system. It also advocates the sinister practise of slavery, and is a highly materialistic and excessive society. Whereas etopia, in contrast has no state sanctioned welfare system in place and is fiercely opposed to the immoral practise of slavery.
No such society as etopia, yet exists. However, with the proper astute, education and the implementing of the proper and necessary measures in to place, the etopian idealistic society can very well become a reality.

Estopia (Estopian) is a combination and bastardization of the greek topos and Eshu, also spelled Eschu, from the Yoruba trickster god and psychopomp, a mischievous but essentially protective, benevolent spirit known as the god of the crossroads. For the sake of illustration. Estopia describes a world that is deeply flawed but sustainable, somewhere between utopia and dystopia. A place where infrastructure and the natural world (the wild) coexist, but humanity is still ironing out the kinks in our own societal design. A place with the potential to develop the technology and resources of a utopia while still dealing with the societal flaws that occur in dystopia.
Estopia, Estopian : Describes a narrative world setting that explores a world/society that isn't perfect but also isn't an unmitigated disaster. The infrastructure and the technology are stable but the cultural society and parts of the economy may still carry old corrupt habits good people will have to push against. A “grim bright” place filled with the hope of improvement, grounded in the understanding that bad things happen and sometimes all you can do is build around the problem. While we may never be able to eliminate the problem, building around an issue is still a solution.
