The Colony of Dudeland Republic is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by The Dude with an even hand, and notable for its national health service. The devout population of 12.627 billion Dudes are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Spirituality, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Big City. The average income tax rate is 39.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Dudeland Republician economy, worth 409 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 32,420 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The state pays for care of easily preventable illnesses, history textbook pages are used as impromptu tissues by distraught students, The Dude has been known to make speeches in fishing waders, and tuba players are paid to quietly whisper into their instruments. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dudeland Republic's national animal is the turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Dudeism.

Dudeland Republic is ranked 140,378^th in the world and 2^nd in Dudeland for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,675.21 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
