The State of Dinwiddle is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 24.839 billion Dinwiddleans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.

The very strong Dinwiddlean economy, worth 949 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Automobile Manufacturing, and Gambling. Average income is 38,223 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 259,870 per year while the poor average 2,053, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Voting is voluntary, the streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, and Dinwiddle has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Dinwiddle's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Dinwiddle is ranked 155,875^th in the world and 301^st in 0000 for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 62.85 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
