“You Can't Stop Progress”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The United States of Dignic Freuraternia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Great Leader with an even hand, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, deadly medical pandemics, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 9.692 billion Dignic Freuraternians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lutherville. The average income tax rate is 73.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Dignic Freuraternian economy, worth a remarkable 1,734 trillion dollars 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 Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, Book Publishing, and Gambling. 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 impressive 178,969 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Workers have seized control of the economy, bands of adventurers rove the countryside searching for monsters, the nation continues to depend on foreigners for food, and poaching has been on the rise after animals from the nation's zoos were released into the wild. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dignic Freuraternia's national animal is the squirrel, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Dignic Freuraternia is ranked 272,545^th in the world and 5,029^th in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -55.61 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
