The Republic of Dude 2 is a massive, pleasant nation, remarkable for its burgeoning squirrel population. The hard-working population of 1.126 billion Dude 2ians 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 Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 14.1%.

The Dude 2ian economy, worth 55.2 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Pizza Delivery, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 49,041 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dude 2's national animal is the squirrel.

Dude 2 is ranked 277,867^th in the world and 1^st in Slembana for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -24.49 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
