The Republic of Dip is a massive, efficient nation, notable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, anti-smoking policies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 2.472 billion twinks are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 40.6%.
The all-consuming twink economy, worth 194 trillion Dips a year, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Woodchip Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 78,867 Dips, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.
Teenagers stay out into the wee hours of the morning "stargazing", it takes months to get the proper permits for a child's first tricycle, the nation's poor can be seen scavenging trash bins for used coffee grounds, and tie-dye has been outlawed for being 'too occult'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dip's national animal is the Rock, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Skibidi.
Dip is ranked 119,804th in the world and 2nd in Cat Army for Most Conservative, scoring 65.08 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
