The Republic of Progressive DG is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its complete lack of prisons, infamous sell-swords, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 589 million Progressive DGians 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.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 40.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Progressive DGian economy, worth 48.0 trillion Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Cheese Exports, and Gambling. Average income is 81,562 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians that report exaggerated crowd sizes for their speeches are dismissed for being delusional, blind dates reemerge as a necessary evil in the quest for love, the nationalistic national anthem inspires citizens to literally spit at foreigners, and public loudspeakers constantly tell citizens they are "happy people". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Progressive DG's national animal is the Ram, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Progressive DG is ranked 11,535th in the world and 22nd in Forest for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 6,468.99 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
