“Everything decided with the roll of a d12.”

The Unpredictable Chaostocracy of Dodecahedria is a massive, devout nation, ruled by The Croupier with an iron fist, and notable for its ban on automobiles. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 4.136 billion are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The enormous government is effectively ruled by the Department of Law & Order, with areas such as Education and Commerce receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Some Random Village. The average income tax rate is 27%. 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.

Public loudspeakers constantly tell citizens they are "happy people", the nation has become a pariah for giving pirates letters of marque, atheists and evolutionary biologists are fleeing the country like rats from a sinking ship, and phone taps are frequently carried out by the police. Crime is crippling. Dodecahedria's national animal is the flipping bird, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, its national religion is Tyche, and its currency is the polyhedron.

Dodecahedria is ranked 2nd in the region and 7,393rd in the world for Highest Unemployment Rates.
