The Plains of Dioxin is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Prefect with a fair hand, and notable for its hatred of cheese. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 22.404 billion enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Equality, and the Environment. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pael. The average income tax rate is 24%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

The people elect the Supreme Court justices directly, 'The Anti-Government Hour' is a popular programme on many of Dioxin's radio stations, the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly, and crime is on the rise as DNA sampling has been all but outlawed. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dioxin's national animal is the Mutant Robin, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Brass Razoo.

Dioxin is ranked 2nd in Unity of Green Pastures and 67,867th in the world for Most Income Equality, scoring 107 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
