The Democratic Republic of Dotopolis is a large, efficient nation, renowned for its avant-garde cinema, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 62 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 11.9%.

The thriving Dotopolisian economy, worth 5.00 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 80,677 Kritiks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Sanitary products are sold in brown paper at hairdressers' salons, the government response to disaster victims starving for bread is "let them eat stale cake", concussed Snakeball players cannot remember their lineup position, and it's considered providence that the political lexicon contains a syrup of company slogans. 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 46,760^th in the world and 1,464^th in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 103.91 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
