The State of Deadweed is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its state-planned economy, complete lack of prisons, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, cynical population of 35.415 billion Deadweedians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 71.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Deadweedian economy, worth a remarkable 1,652 trillion betales a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Trout Farming. Average income is 46,674 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Military spending is on the increase, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, the automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, and the government is attempting to revitalize a gutted private sector. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Deadweed's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Deadweed is ranked 239,159^th in the world and 1^st in Foes for Least Corrupt Governments, with 91.14 percentage of bribes refused.
