The Goobgle republic of Davinhia is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Ichobald IV with a fair hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, keen interest in outer space, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 24.095 billion Davinians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Turkey. The average income tax rate is 31.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Davinian economy, worth a remarkable 2,638 trillion Turkeys a year, is highly specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Gambling. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 109,498 Turkeys, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The tenet of free speech is held dear, voting is voluntary, euthanasia is legal, and Ichobald IV is frequently seen begging critics to stop insulting the government. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Davinhia's national animal is the Turkey, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Turkey.

Davinhia is ranked 313,324^th in the world and 5,091^st in The East Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -11.66 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
