“We rock and roll. Deal with it.”

The Awesome Land of Deadsquirrel is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Lady Jae with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 3.182 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 Education, the Environment, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 100%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

Citizens applying for their first jobs face fierce competition from the homeless, all beauty contests have been banned, Deadsquirrel's famous countrysides are shrouded by wind farms, and the government funds private schools for intellectually gifted children. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Deadsquirrel's national animal is the telepathic red fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the derel.

Deadsquirrel is ranked 5th in the region and 52,968th in the world for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector.
