The Adorable Nation of Davelands is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Dave with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, pith helmet sales, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 18.035 billion Davelandsians 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 Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Davelands City. The average income tax rate is 46.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Davelandsian economy, worth a remarkable 2,790 trillion Sportsbucks a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 154,718 Sportsbucks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Heartfelt sentiments are mercilessly marketed by a million-Sportsbucks treacle machine, the government has legalised small-scale capitalism, Dave's recent "I have a dream that we will fight them by raking muck on the beaches" speech seems a little derivative to many, and a firework a day does not in fact keep the doctor away. Crime is totally unknown. Davelands's national animal is the Poodle, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Davelands is ranked 287,539^th in the world and 9^th in The Sportsbook for Most Primitive, scoring -502.57 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
