The Republic of Dream Buffet is a massive, genial nation, renowned for its daily referendums, keen interest in outer space, and public floggings. The compassionate, devout population of 2.262 billion Dream Buffetians 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 minute government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Law & Order, with Administration and Industry also on the agenda, while International Aid and Social Policy aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.5%.

The Dream Buffetian economy, worth 108 trillion stardusts a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 47,856 stardusts, with the richest citizens earning 8.3 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens can freely debate whether Leader is a great leader or the greatest leader, citizens seem fixated on 105m x 45m rectangles, naturists are jailed regularly for indecent exposure, and some say Leader has gone MAD after authorizing the development of apocalyptic biological weapons. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. Dream Buffet's national animal is the moonlark, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Dream Buffet is ranked 16,905^th in the world and 1^st in Dream Buffet for Nicest Citizens, with 24.29 average smiles per day.
