The Confederacy of Dominos is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its enslaved workforce, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 11.508 billion Dominosians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Industry, although Education is also considered important, while Environment and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ypsilanti. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Dominosian economy, worth a remarkable 1,712 trillion slices a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Soda Sales, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 148,791 slices, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,124,762 per year while the poor average 5,551, a ratio of 202 to 1.

A survey of the nation's rivers and children has shown that pesticide levels are at an all-time regional high, school uniforms are compulsory, copyright laws have been abolished, and convicted criminals are given free limo rides to jail. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Dominos's national animal is the pizza rat, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Dominos is ranked 51,559th in the world and 11th in Union of Allied Planets for Most Corrupt Governments, with 37.57 kickbacks per hour.
