The State of D B A is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by the Governor with an iron fist, and remarkable for its public floggings, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 20.687 billion D B Aians 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Public Transport, Law & Order, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Westminster. The average income tax rate is 77.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant D B Aian economy, worth 214 trillion betales 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 a slick, highly efficient, highly specialized black market in Pizza Delivery, Retail, Uranium Mining, and Trout Farming. 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 10,364 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Gambling is outlawed, thieves are flogged in public for their crimes, D B A has designated Westminster as its capital city, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of D B A in an international press conference. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. D B A's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

D B A is ranked 50,676^th in the world and 1^st in Majuro for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 610.23 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
