The Community of Doriander is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, rampant corporate plagiarism, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.447 billion Dorianderians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 95.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Dorianderian economy, worth 174 trillion credits 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 120,780 credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Saying 'Hi Guys' to a mixed gender group of people at work is a fireable offense, students are known to arrive at school in their pyjamas, cash-strapped junkies lick rabbits for a cheap high, and graffiti graces every city's streets. Crime is totally unknown. Doriander's national animal is the panda, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Doriander is ranked 7,966^th in the world and 231^st in the South Pacific for Smartest Citizens, with 103.36 quips per hour.
