The Crowded Utopian Community of TimDauwalter is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its complete lack of prisons. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 19.419 billion live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal, pro-business government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, the Environment, and Social Equality. The average income tax rate is 20%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Automobile Manufacturing industry.

Tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests, corporations donate huge sums of money to favored politicians, pharmacies close down as medicinal drugs are sold freely by the government, and euthanasia is legal. Crime is totally unknown. TimDauwalter's national animal is the catfish, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Wooden Nickel.

TimDauwalter is ranked 11th in Texas and 2,311th in the world for Most Politically Free, scoring 88 on the Diebold Election Inking Scale.
