The Calamaripublic of Dunsteen is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Squidward Tentacles with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, daily referendums, and complete absence of social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 6.446 billion Dunstenes 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 Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bikini Bottom. The average income tax rate is 48.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Dunsteenian economy, worth a remarkable 1,001 trillion clarinets a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 155,308 clarinets, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

No animal is considered endangered if there's another that looks kind of like it, the nation sends criminals home to think about what they did, environmentalists are advocating slash-and-burn in the nation's forests, and prisoners fit in their parole hearings around their spa treatments. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dunsteen's national animal is the squid, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Squidism.

Dunsteen is ranked 17,102^nd in the world and 318^th in Europe for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 53.38 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
