The United Socialist States of David Drumlin is a colossal, safe nation, remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, avant-garde cinema, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, devout population of 8.128 billion Scientific Advisors are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Education are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of National Science Foundation. The average income tax rate is 57.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Scientific Advisor economy, worth 399 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 49,212 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The "war on terror" doesn't seem to be making Scientific Advisors any less frightened, people are moving into treehouses in record numbers, administrative districts are increasingly defined by their taste in housing architecture, and the banshee wail foretells skies of death. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. David Drumlin's national animal is the Quasar, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

David Drumlin is ranked 133,708^th in the world and 92^nd in Bytes for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 106.34 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
