The Commonwealth of Dinosauriaa is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by The Revolutionary Council with a fair hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, sprawling nuclear power plants, and parental licensing program. The compassionate, democratic population of 10.83 billion Dinosauriaans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fossil City. The average income tax rate is 97.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Dinosauriaan economy, worth a remarkable 1,842 trillion Ammonites a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 170,162 Ammonites, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cultural heritage is measured in Scoville Heat Units, excessive wheelchair ramps on government buildings have been compared to theme park attractions, newly synthesized elements' half-lives are a million times shorter than the time it takes to say their names, and back-alley circumcision clinics are popping up all over the nation. Crime is totally unknown. Dinosauriaa's national animal is the Centrosaurus, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Paleontology.

Dinosauriaa is ranked 305,209^th in the world and 461^st in The Communist Bloc for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -7.48 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
