The Dominion of Squeete is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Prime Minister Richard Spenard with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate population of 7.625 billion Squeeteans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Squeete Bay. The average income tax rate is 93.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Squeetean economy, worth a remarkable 1,043 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 136,835 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Married couples must call each other "darling" or risk a fine, ice-filled coffins are ominously positioned in the corner of every hospital ward, children are brainwashed at a young age to accept "love and peace!" as a way of life, and citizens are frequently searched for illegal weapons. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Squeete's national animal is the Massasauga rattler, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is None.

Squeete is ranked 5,547th in the world and 19th in Canada for Most Cultured, scoring 150 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
