The Grand Duchy of Dhemixia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its smutty television, anti-smoking policies, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate population of 3.24 billion Dhemixians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Columbus. The average income tax rate is 78.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Dhemixian economy, worth 428 trillion Denarii a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 132,228 Denarii, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are strongly encouraged to breathe less so as to limit the carbon footprint, space shuttles are lying silent on the runway till the Space Agency can work out how to fit a creche and a meditation room into their next spacecraft, Dhemixians incessantly needle their doctors for relief, and major cities shut down as their local sports team takes to the field every day. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dhemixia's national animal is the Serpent, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Dhemixia is ranked 99,873^rd in the world and 1,853^rd in the South Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 2,562.09 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
