The United Archduchy of Dorig is a colossal, economically powerful nation, ruled by Prime Minister Kal Saldor with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its compassionate, hard-working population of 6.531 billion have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Defence, and Healthcare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Augustval. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 91%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Tourism industry, followed by Book Publishing and Gambling.

There have been sightings of people walking around dressed in nothing but leopard-skin g-strings for 'religious reasons', the government is seen to favor Catholics, recruitment posters proclaim the army to be both fabulous and fashionable, and students cut up leftover jub jubs during Arts and Crafts. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dorig's national animal is the monkey, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is polytheism, and its currency is the jub jub.

Dorig is ranked 1st in South Pacific and 1,499th in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 10 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
