The Queendom of Duneridge is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 17.678 billion Duneridgeans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.
The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.9%.
The thriving Duneridgean economy, worth a remarkable 1,298 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 73,434 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 259,935 per year while the poor average 14,979, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.
The nation's official head of religious affairs is an atheist, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, and voting is voluntary. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Duneridge's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
Duneridge is ranked 82,542nd in the world and 169th in United States of America for Highest Food Quality, scoring 26.46 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
