The Federal Republic of Dimetrodons is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its fear of technology, keen interest in outer space, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, hard-working population of 778 million Dimetrodonsians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Koudekerk Nature Reserve. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 33.9%.

The Dimetrodonsian economy, worth 29.4 trillion Tushtoan currencies a year, is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Cheese Exports, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 37,753 Tushtoan currencies, with the richest citizens earning 6.5 times as much as the poorest.

New government leaflets tell coeliac children to eat more crisps, even snitches get stitches, unemployed accountants keep double-entry ledgers of their benefit claims, and it's considered a civil right to be allowed to neglect and mistreat your own children. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dimetrodons's national animal is the Tushtoan national animal, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Dimetrodons is ranked 290,595^th in the world and 17^th in Tushto for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -7.12 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
