The Republic of 4-Desoxymescaline is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its prohibition of alcohol, free-roaming dinosaurs, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed population of 8.557 billion 4-Desoxymescalineans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 60.0%.

The powerhouse 4-Desoxymescalinean economy, worth 499 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Uranium Mining, and Pizza Delivery. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 58,400 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Inter-species marriages are ignored by the government, nothing gets the party jumping like Leader specifying how high, going on a diet invalidates your passport, and scavengers with burlap sacks and shovels skulk around graveyards. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 4-Desoxymescaline's national animal is the panther.

4-Desoxymescaline is ranked 45,664^th in the world and 816^th in Artificial Solar System for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 3,495.36 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
