The Federal Republic of Dioswania is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, public floggings, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 12.181 billion Dioswanians 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Casaroja. The average income tax rate is 93.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Dioswanian economy, worth a remarkable 2,527 trillion Pesos a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Tourism, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 207,465 Pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The government has enacted freedom of information, the Ministry of Health has reported a sharp increase in the incidence of delayed menopause, no-one bats an eye when 'really good platonic friends' of the same sex hold hands in Dioswania, and music teachers are commonly seen busking in order to fund their music programs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dioswania's national animal is the Squirrel, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Sunni Islam.

Dioswania is ranked 17,885^th in the world and 397^th in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 91.5 law-abiding acts per hour.
