The Grand Duchy of Diogott is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Grand Duke Karl Eduard II with an even hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, complete lack of prisons, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 26.312 billion Diotians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed, including voting. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Merano. The average income tax rate is 96.9%.

The enormous but inefficient Diotian economy, worth a remarkable 2,719 trillion kreuzers a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is mostly comprised of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 103,366 kreuzers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government maintains that belief brings greater security than money or a roof, wrongful arrests abound as 'criminals' blame the guy next to them, the new Liquor Legitimacy Office is besieged with applications from people who have experience in "statistical sampling methods", and a popular artist is claiming that a raw steak with a dog turd on it is a portrait of Grand Duke Karl Eduard II. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Diogott's national animal is the Charles Edward Lemur, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Diogott is ranked 331,102^nd in the world and 1^st in Imperial Fatherland for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -33.24 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
