The State of Great Dog is a gargantuan, pleasant nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 10.611 billion Great Dogians 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, Education, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.0%.

The strong Great Dogian economy, worth 657 trillion betales a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Furniture Restoration, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 61,988 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 193,605 per year while the poor average 15,234, a ratio of 12.7 to 1.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and employers may fire workers without giving any reason. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Great Dog's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Great Dog is ranked 102,863^rd in the world and 4^th in Northern Territory for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,018.9 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
