The Dictatorship of Drenth Islands is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 442 million Drenth Islanders are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nofreedomia. The average income tax rate is 70.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Drenth Islandian economy, worth 20.8 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 47,142 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are regularly arrested in queues for 'loitering', even snitches get stitches, blind dates tend to result in bruised shins, and citizens know not to ask what their country can do for them but what they can do as chained slaves for their country. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Drenth Islands's national animal is the naked mole-rat, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Drenth Islands is ranked 212,261^st in the world and 4,880^th in The North Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 49.5 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
