Definition of utopia:

Utopia: An ideally perfect place, especially in its social, political, and moral aspects
("the free dictionary by Farlex")


Definition of dystopia:


Dystopia: An imaginary place where the conditions and quality of life are unpleasant. The opposite of Utopia. 
("the free dictionary by Farlex")


From the definition of utopia i understand that its not an existing place its just made up. its like an escape in peoples mind that they go to. 
 this also makes me think of Plato's Theory of Forms because the form world is a perfect place. It also makes me think of the movie Avatar.
From the definition Dystopia i understand its an imaginary place that's not good.
when i think about the definition of dystopia it makes me think of bad dreams because dreams are not real and when your having a bad dream you don't feel good. You feel scared and all these negative emotions.
