The Command Sprite of Dot Matrix is a mammoth, efficient nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, infamous sell-swords, and prohibition of alcohol. The compassionate population of 8.64 billion Dot Matrixians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 52.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Dot Matrixian economy, worth 597 trillion guilders a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Woodchip Exports, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 69,076 guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Music award shows include surprise polygraph segments, a division of tanks navigating "as the crow flies" has driven into a ravine, doctors refer to inner-cities as newbie zones, and the new Refuse Hills housing development is under construction. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dot Matrix's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Dot Matrix is ranked 215,117^th in the world and 9^th in The Red Plains for Most Secular, with 15.18 Atheism Rate.
