The Republic of Dingostan is a fledgling, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 6 million Dingostanis are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 32.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Dingostani economy, worth 243 billion dons a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 40,617 dons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Fidgety cubicle workers play with their balls, hot dogs have been renamed lukewarm pigs, the government recently relinquished its monopoly on the mail service, and the holidays begin with the traditional exchanging of aspirin. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dingostan's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Dingostan is ranked 179,956^th in the world and 246^th in NationStates for Fattest Citizens, with 9.65 Obesity Rate.
