The Republic of DaveMustaine is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its triple-decker prams, complete lack of public education, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 3.48 billion DaveMustaineans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Spirituality, although Industry is also considered important, while Welfare and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.0%.

The thriving DaveMustainean economy, worth 235 trillion beers a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Pizza Delivery, and Gambling. Average income is 67,724 beers, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 393,590 per year while the poor average 5,516, a ratio of 71.4 to 1.

Convicts get out of jams easily, a major religion has been named as DaveMustaine's national religion, the Federal Council of DaveMustaine has been announced as the new Head of State, and Mr Happy's Funland has just been named DaveMustaine's new capital. Crime is a problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. DaveMustaine's national animal is the political guitar solo, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

DaveMustaine is ranked 315,876^th in the world and 3^rd in Megadeth for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -9.49 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
