The Democratic Republic of Dotopolis is a small, safe nation, notable for its daily referendums, compulsory military service, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 45 million Dotopolisians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 12.0%.

The thriving Dotopolisian economy, worth 3.60 trillion Kritiks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is 80,019 Kritiks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

No one gossips with Leader during diplomatic summits, deceased politicians spam the public with thousands of AI-generated voicemails, sanitary products are sold in brown paper at hairdressers' salons, and the government response to disaster victims starving for bread is "let them eat stale cake". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dotopolis's national animal is the Snake, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Dotopolis is ranked 192,383^rd in the world and 4,157^th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring zero on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
