The Republic of The Dallas Mavericks is a gargantuan, orderly nation, renowned for its parental licensing program, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.75 billion Dallas Mavericksians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 75.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Dallas Mavericksian economy, worth a remarkable 1,644 trillion baht a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 152,992 baht, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Travelers are subject to extensive searches if beet stains are visible on their clothing, the Violetist community celebrates bombshells being dropped on The Dallas Mavericks, nobody looks each other in the eye at neighborhood block parties any more, and newspapers may not print any negative stories about the government. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Dallas Mavericks's national animal is the kiwi, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

The Dallas Mavericks is ranked 14,411th in the world and 154th in the West Pacific for Most Stationary, with 1,816.86295526252 days.
