The Anarchist State of Dogteeth is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Lucky with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 11.365 billion Dogteethians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pawstep City. The average income tax rate is 91.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Dogteethian economy, worth a remarkable 1,382 trillion marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 121,667 marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Chickens roam the streets freely, sociologists can charge whatever fee they like as the nation tries to find itself, the people are famous throughout the region for their perfect yellow teeth, and raccoons are plump and satiated. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dogteeth's national animal is the mongrel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Dogteeth is ranked 189,332^nd in the world and 214^th in The Communist Bloc for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 15.61 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
