The Dominion of Squeete is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by Prime Minister Richard Spenard with an even hand, and renowned for its national health service, sprawling nuclear power plants, and public floggings. The compassionate population of 7.649 billion Squeeteans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Squeete Bay. The average income tax rate is 93.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Squeetean economy, worth a remarkable 1,043 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 136,479 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are frequently searched for illegal weapons, dog breeding has been banned in accordance with recent animal experimentation laws, the volume of paperwork used to complete a single environmental assessment defeats the purpose, and anyone with an emergency on a holy day is advised to pray harder. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Squeete's national animal is the Massasauga rattler, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is None.

Squeete is ranked 32,727th in the world and 34th in Canada for Highest Average Incomes, with 136,479.91 Standard Monetary Units.
