The Republic of Dimech is a huge, socially progressive nation, ruled by Rhys with an even hand, and notable for its infamous sell-swords, keen interest in outer space, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, devout population of 894 million Dimechians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mosta. The average income tax rate is 77.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Dimechian economy, worth 71.4 trillion Euros a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 79,826 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens ask "how many crooks could a nunchuck hook if a nun had nunchucks too?", snap elections are called whenever there's a chance to increase Rhys's majority, graffiti graces every city's streets, and on-duty Air Dimech flight attendants are usually seen napping in first class. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dimech's national animal is the Dimechian Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Dimech is ranked 203,662^nd in the world and 6,067^th in The North Pacific for Largest Black Market, with 15.9 billion Standard Monetary Units.
