The Republic of Divare is a huge, pleasant nation, notable for its burgeoning turtle population. The hard-working population of 600 million Divareans 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 Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 14.1%.

The Divarean economy, worth 29.5 trillion lire a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Arms Manufacturing, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 49,138 lire, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Divare's national animal is the turtle, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

Divare is ranked 180,487^th in the world and 3^rd in Kangaroo Island for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 1,097.2 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
