The Democratic Republic of Dentium is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Dent with a fair hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and national health service. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 4.112 billion Dentians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dent City. The average income tax rate is 94.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Dentiumian economy, worth 549 trillion notes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 133,692 notes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

City workers have declared that rolling markets aren't good for business after all, back-alley holistic doctors carry crystals in long trench coats, the government's foreign policy statements are less threatening than a World Assembly cease-and-desist letter, and physics lessons mostly involve talking about emotional management techniques. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dentium's national animal is the capybara, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Dentium is ranked 10,183^rd in the world and 49^th in Democratic Socialist Assembly for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 11,084.83 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
