The Rogue Nation of Dezfur is a huge, orderly nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, ubiquitous missile silos, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 260 million Dezfurrians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Administration, Education, and Healthcare are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Worriedsburg. The average income tax rate is 41.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Dezfurrian economy, worth 14.8 trillion Dezzes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 56,917 Dezzes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

All government facilities are built in the subterranean citadel of Worriedsburg, the seventh son of a seventh son is fated to be a millionaire, human sacrifice to the metaphorical altar of Mammon ensures national prosperity, and viewers get headaches from trying to read the screen full of small print warnings that precede most TV shows. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dezfur's national animal is the furry, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Dezfur is ranked 145,869th in the world and 224th in The League for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 98.56 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
