The Free Land of Dative is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Dat boi with an even hand, and remarkable for its public floggings, complete lack of prisons, and enforced nudity. The hard-nosed, devout population of 3.551 billion Dativeans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed, including voting. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ouann. The average income tax rate is 76.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Dativean economy, worth 295 trillion Exoneses a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Gambling. Average income is 83,136 Exoneses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The early morning commute lasts into the afternoon, people caught mistreating Dative's flag generally wind up in a great deal of pain, hospitals have unveiled new guidelines suggesting that latex gloves do not count as clothing, and sports fans complain that cricket tests now last an unbearable ten days. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dative's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Yobama.

Dative is ranked 267,567^th in the world and 8^th in Number for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -7.07 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
