The Republic of Dithmeyerstan is a large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, daily referendums, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, hard-working population of 135 million Dithmeyerstanians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 22.8%.

The Dithmeyerstanian economy, worth 8.77 trillion Diths a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 64,998 Diths, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

Scientists take credit every time it rains in The East Pacific, competing private ambulances racing to be the first to traffic accidents are a major cause of road accidents, contestants on Dithmeyerstan's Got Talent are screened by the government to make sure that they actually have talent, and unemployed accountants keep double-entry ledgers of their benefit claims. Crime is totally unknown. Dithmeyerstan's national animal is the penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Dithmeyerstan is ranked 199,842^nd in the world and 2,473^rd in The East Pacific for Rudest Citizens, with 40.26 insults per minute.
