The Militarized State of Dat Countreh is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Dat Leedur with an iron fist, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, keen interest in outer space, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 21.629 billion Engineers are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government is dominated by the Department of Defense, although Education, Healthcare, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dat Capital. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Dat Countrehian economy, worth an astonishing 10,752 trillion Ration Stamps a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 497,121 Ration Stamps, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The alien invasion siren sounds eerily like a UFO, many friends and relatives of Dat Leedur have been given ambassador jobs in tropical island nations, arts classes now teach children how to sketch the perfect sine curve, and blasphemers and government critics often die in very unusual and unlikely accidents. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dat Countreh's national animal is the Human, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Engineering.

Dat Countreh is ranked 1,906th in the world and 3rd in Europeia for Largest Mining Sector, scoring 23,493.57 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
