Swift also wrote Gulliver's Travels to show his idealized vision of English society. In the novel, Swift criticizes the government as he recounts the adventures Gulliver has on different islands with groups of foreign and unique people. In a way, Swift creates utopian societies on Lillitupian Island and Brobdingnag Island to show the imperfection of the government that existed in England. When Gulliver, Swift's main character, interacts with these societies, he criticizes some of their customs and laws. He notes that these societies are not utopian from his point of view. While there are many themes in Gulliver's Travels, this article will focus on the first and second parts, examining the utopian societies that Swift creates for Gulliver to experience through his interactions with the government system of the Lilliputians and the Brobdingnagian people.

On the island, the Lilliputians, who are twelve... half of the card... whose main goal is to prevent civil wars. This type of army represents Swift's ideal militia, rather than a professional army. The Brobdingnagians show Utopia Swift's wishes for England because the way England was governed caused a lot of conflict between the people.
