The Militarized State of Dat Countreh is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Dat Leedur with an iron fist, and notable for its infamous sell-swords, soft-spoken computers, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 20.445 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 aren't funded at all. 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 10,196 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 498,720 Ration Stamps, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Dat Countrehian war navy contains an oddly large number of luxury yachts and cruise liners, nations across the world are quick to praise Dat Leedur's good looks and intellectual prowess, it turns out that you actually can put a price on intangible cultural heritage, and the Dat Countrehian delegation to the World Assembly is having a hard time convincing people that international law will "pay for itself somehow...". 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 frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Engineering.

Dat Countreh is ranked 63,606th in the world and 370th in Europeia for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 484.38 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
