The United States of Dignic Freuraternia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Great Leader with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, flagrant waste-dumping, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.669 billion Dignic Freuraternians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lutherville. The average income tax rate is 72.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Dignic Freuraternian economy, worth a remarkable 1,738 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, Gambling, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 179,837 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It's best not to ask what goes into Lutherville Fried Chicken's secret blend of herbs and spices, preschoolers practice disarming active shooters before naptime, punk-rockers and girl-bands are united in their loss of fashion statements, and child labor has been outlawed. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dignic Freuraternia's national animal is the squirrel, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Dignic Freuraternia is ranked 8,968th in the world and 183rd in the South Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 66.23 flags saluted per person per day.
