The Republic of Dingostan is a small, cultured nation, notable for its absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 29 million Dingostanis are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 35.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Dingostani economy, worth 1.15 trillion dons a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 39,507 dons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

New pilots are regularly reminded that they are more expendable than their planes, heartfelt sentiments are mercilessly marketed by a million-don treacle machine, transgender and agender are on the education agenda, and kids are told they can be whoever they want to be when they grow up. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dingostan's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Dingostan is ranked 164,315^th in the world and 678^th in NationStates for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 7,534.81 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
