The Constitutional Monarchy of Divinusland is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Dionysius Hermes Augustus XXXVI with an iron fist, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, anti-smoking policies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 2.72 billion Dionis 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 enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Augustopolis. The average income tax rate is 90.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Divinuns economy, worth 253 trillion Manticor coins a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 93,039 Manticor coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Students spend the school year learning how great the education system is, nature magazines featuring stick insects on their covers are sometimes mistaken for fashion magazines, fat-shaming is now public policy, and falling satellites are regarded as a blessing from the gods. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Divinusland's national animal is the Manticor, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Circularis Infinitum.

Divinusland is ranked 6,103rd in the world and 6th in Astoria for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 2,454.28 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
