The Principality of The Realm of Dorne is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Princess Arianne Martell with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, unlimited-speed roads, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 6.12 billion Dornish enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sunspear. The average income tax rate is 45.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Dornish economy, worth a remarkable 1,003 trillion dragons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 163,961 dragons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation is noticeably more cheerful on Tuesdays, youth rights demonstrations often end in vicious snowball fights, the cruise missile launchers on the field hospital roof are purely deterrent in purpose, and the military's newest anti-tank strategy is throwing a landmine like a frisbee. Crime is totally unknown. The Realm of Dorne's national animal is the Viper, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Realm of Dorne is ranked 296,213^th in the world and 4,350^th in The North Pacific for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring -9.4 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
