The Republic of Dimetrodon Fendas is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic, devout population of 390 million Dimetrodon Fendasians 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 large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 59.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Dimetrodon Fendasian economy, worth 5.72 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Automobile Manufacturing, Pizza Delivery, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 14,676 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dimetrodon Fendas's national animal is the edaphosaurus.

Dimetrodon Fendas is ranked 218,676^th in the world and 3,618^th in Artificial Solar System for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -3.79 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
