The Republic of Dixfeild is a tiny, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working population of 8 million Dixfeildians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 17.3%.

The strong Dixfeildian economy, worth 403 billion Copper Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Cheese Exports, and Information Technology. Average income is 50,379 Copper Coins, with the richest citizens earning 6.1 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's democracy attracts huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the statue in the Jones Plaza has a solar panel for a hat, hospitals have poor data security but send lots of bodies to be encrypted, and the roar of the Niagara 3000 mega-loo can be heard several blocks away. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dixfeild's national animal is the Moose, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Dixfeild is ranked 135,137^th in the world and 1,805^th in the South Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 56.96 on the Human Development Index.
