The Theocracy of DIN 555 is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its disturbing lack of elderly people, public floggings, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.316 billion DIN 555ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 67.4%.

The frighteningly efficient DIN 555ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,377 trillion DINS a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 133,535 DINS, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 389,544 per year while the poor average 36,170, a ratio of 10.8 to 1.

Those who sing the national anthem off-key have the key thrown away, the government is hounded to provide tissues whenever the feelings of the Dàguó people are hurt, requests for government aid can be forwarded to the beach, and foreign leaders who don't applaud Leader's speeches are regarded as enemies of DIN 555. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. DIN 555's national animal is the DIN 438, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

DIN 555 is ranked 80,582nd in the world and 6th in Thegye for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,680.59 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
