The Democratic Republic of Dotopolis is a small, safe nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 32 million Dotopolisians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 13.8%.

The thriving Dotopolisian economy, worth 2.39 trillion Kritiks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Arms Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 74,585 Kritiks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Children in school playgrounds can be heard chanting the hymns of the Order of Violet, the new "Bloodbath" orange tree autonomously seeks and destroys independent orchards, cinemas play art-house movies to ever-shrinking audiences as film critics rule the industry, and the nation's prisons are touted as the best weight loss programs money can't buy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dotopolis's national animal is the Snake, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Dotopolis is ranked 52,099^th in the world and 1,077^th in The North Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring 53.39 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
