The Good Kush of The Dollar Store is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, zero percent divorce rate, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed population of 1.942 billion Dollar Storeans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Dollar Store. The average income tax rate is 32.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Dollar Storean economy, worth 56.4 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 29,039 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Lending money has become a major liability, wedding bands come in pairs to form wedding manacles, the military perceives nations hit by natural disasters as "easy pickings", and Leader has just been declared ruler of The Dollar Store in an international press conference. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Dollar Store's national animal is the store, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

The Dollar Store is ranked 120,306th in the world and 1st in Kush for Safest, scoring 73.33 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
