The Democratic Republic of Dimplingpie is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Princess Dimpy with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 3.304 billion Dimplingpieans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Dimptropolis. The average income tax rate is 82.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Dimplingpiean economy, worth 280 trillion Pies a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 84,911 Pies, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The ruling party has a devil of a time keeping order in the ranks, parents giddily refuse to pay their toddlers' medical bills, government bureaucrats review designs for birdhouses to ensure they do not block the views of neighbors, and foreigners must sell an arm and a leg to afford surgery in Dimplingpie. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dimplingpie's national animal is the Wisdom Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Hootangelism.

Dimplingpie is ranked 44,683^rd in the world and 1,004^th in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 162.55 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
