The Free Land of The Diablo Range is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Environmentalist with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 7.803 billion Diablo Rangeans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government prioritizes Education, with Welfare, Environment, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mount Hamilton. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 15.9%.

The thriving Diablo Rangean economy, worth 733 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Gambling, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 93,938 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

The "war on terror" doesn't seem to be making Diablo Rangeans any less frightened, divorce lawyers are found begging on the streets, explicit slash fiction is repackaged for kindergarten kids as stories about friends cuddling friends, and pareidolic SETI scientists swear there's a message from aliens hidden within pi. Crime is totally unknown. The Diablo Range's national animal is the coyote, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Paganism.

The Diablo Range is ranked 118,768^th in the world and 1^st in The Diablo Range for Lowest Crime Rates, with 63.84 law-abiding acts per hour.
