The Southern Republic of The Dixie Confederate Union is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Admiral Jane Stuart-Jones with an iron fist, and remarkable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, sprawling nuclear power plants, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 12.302 billion Southerners 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 tiny, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fortress Washington. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Southern economy, worth a remarkable 3,754 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 305,160 dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,303,100 per year while the poor average 45,883, a ratio of 28.4 to 1.

Wildlife near farms is slowly becoming extinct, historical commemorations regularly devolve into militaristic jingoism, hordes of gardening enthusiasts are being banished from cities nationwide, and the tenet of free speech is held dear. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Dixie Confederate Union's national animal is the fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Southern Catholicism.

The Dixie Confederate Union is ranked 291,145^th in the world and 223^rd in Confederation of Corrupt Dictators for Most Primitive, scoring -743.05 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
