The Dominion of Dicionaries is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Barack Obama with an even hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 19.295 billion Diciots 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shotgun Knees. The average income tax rate is 90.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Dicionariesian economy, worth a remarkable 6,450 trillion sweet sweet Rubles a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 334,309 sweet sweet Rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

The government's giant servers are often used as a tourist trap, there's no such thing as bad publicity, voting is voluntary, and 1% of global paper production is bound for the National Archive. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Dicionaries's national animal is the sanglier, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is La Grotte Chauvet.

Dicionaries is ranked 154,875th in the world and 3,098th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 145.2881709044 days.
