The United States of Der Land is a mammoth, safe nation, renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical population of 8.188 billion Der Landians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Der Land City. The average income tax rate is 48.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Der Landian economy, worth 538 trillion Lawsuits a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 65,770 Lawsuits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has declared its commitment to multilateralism, ignorance is considered a politically desirable quality, private pharmacies close down as medicinal drugs are given away freely by the government, and everyone suspects that everyone else is a terrorist. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Der Land's national animal is the Chicken, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Der Land is ranked 111,285^th in the world and 5,573^rd in Osiris for Highest Average Incomes, with 65,770.09 Standard Monetary Units.
