The Durmengrad Prime of DGP is a mammoth, pleasant nation, ruled by Durm with an even hand, and remarkable for its spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 5.924 billion Durmengradians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Durmengrad Prime. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.8%.

The strong Durmengradian economy, worth 312 trillion rubledollars a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Retail, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 52,760 rubledollars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 295,913 per year while the poor average 4,661, a ratio of 63.5 to 1.

Citizens volunteer for tax audits to avoid the 80-page Practical Assessment Survey Tool On Religions, the military is slashing spending on conventional arms and diverting it to spending on prosthetic arms, farm turkeys are given high doses of antidepressants to take their minds off the holiday season, and the latest guided missile cruiser "Ship-1642" has received precisely zero column inches in the press. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. DGP's national animal is the hawk and its national religion is Durmism.

DGP is ranked 158,823^rd in the world and 779^th in The catholic military orders for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 70.71 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
