The Colony of Davertown is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 15.84 billion Davertowners 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, well-organized government prioritizes Administration, although Defense, Industry, and Healthcare are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 95.8%.
The frighteningly efficient Davertownian economy, worth a remarkable 3,782 trillion gold coins a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Retail, Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 238,802 gold coins, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.
Litter collection has replaced fast food as the most popular after-school job, foreign students are expected to have a Kegmeister Grade Average of 36-24-36 to qualify for university, dinosaur breeders have a yabba-dabba-doo gay old time in Davertown, and authorities are looking for a stool pigeon to rat out who is stealing food from pigeon toilets. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Davertown's national animal is the plough horse, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Davertown is ranked 289,517th in the world and 6th in 21st Century Rome for Safest, scoring 3.84 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
