“Glory to the gods”

The Dictorial Republic of Dostanuot Loj is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 12.48 billion are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Education. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Uruk. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry.

Mining safety laws are often more expensive than what's being mined, Dostanuot Loj has designated Uruk as its capital city, bombs are permitted on planes for the 'security of the passengers', and the government has cut taxes in the face of widespread tax evasion. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dostanuot Loj's national animal is the Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Dinnar.

Dostanuot Loj is ranked 11th in the region and 4,200th in the world for Most Politically Apathetic Citizens.
