The Seasonal Inhabitants of Dude Ranch is a massive, economically powerful nation, ruled by Joe Thornton with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 3.305 billion love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

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 Social Equality. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of San Jose. The average income tax rate is 97%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Tourism industry.

Shark is one of the most popular forenames in Dude Ranch, a government program is underway to revitalize Dude Ranch's beaches, the upper class have been throwing riots after hunting was recently banned, and the nation's infamous boot camp is more brutal than most battlefields. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dude Ranch's national animal is the Shark, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Broken Stick.

Dude Ranch is ranked 7th in California and 59,161st in the world for Most Authoritarian, with 0.322 Stalins.
