The Democratic Republic of Dominating is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws. The hard-working, cynical population of 594 million Dominatingians enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The relatively small, liberal, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.2%.

The very strong Dominatingian economy, worth 30.8 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Tourism, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 51,776 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 167,336 per year while the poor average 12,107, a ratio of 13.8 to 1.

Crime is a problem. Dominating's national animal is the parrot, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Dominating is ranked 212,558^th in the world and 12,094^th in Osiris for Nicest Citizens, with 12 average smiles per day.
