“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 renowned for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 2.47 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 the Environment, Education, 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.

The police have reaffirmed their tough stance on drugs, the government seeks peaceful forum with terrorists, the sound of wooden legs echo throughout Deadsquirrel after the recent introduction of the Foot Tax, and military funding has been stripped back. 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 2nd in the region and 2,356th in the world for Highest Unemployment Rates.
