The United Dominion of LOVE DOG is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Caesar Jason Scotus Lupus with an iron fist, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, keen interest in outer space, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 36.354 billion Dominionites are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Industry, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bucharest. The average income tax rate is 96.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Dominionite economy, worth an astonishing 11,147 trillion Commonwealth Credits a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is an amazing 306,625 Commonwealth Credits, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

Tough diplomacy is often best handled with a nutcracker, people seem disproportionately distraught when told a museum has a phones-off policy, those who turn the other cheek seem to enjoy being slapped just a little too much, and smart fridges sing the praises of the Church of Eternal Light for fear of being iced. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. LOVE DOG's national animal is the Demonic Cheetah, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is the Church of Eternal Light.

LOVE DOG is ranked 4,946th in the world and 8th in Gholgoth for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 6,606.85 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
