The Queendom of Dunden is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Queen Dystrana with an iron fist, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, parental licensing program, and hatred of cheese. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 40.982 billion Dundenians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 95.6%.

The enormous but underdeveloped Dundenian economy, worth a remarkable 2,348 trillion matans a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is mostly comprised of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 57,303 matans, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Many aides in Queen Dystrana's office are known to be serial jaywalkers, advertisers are struggling to make water sound cool to a twitchy public, people often complain that they're going in circuitous routes all the time, and couples kissing on the street are detained for 'unlawful exchange of genetic material'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dunden's national animal is the dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Dunden is ranked 4,909^th in the world and 1^st in Rumathier for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 95.61 Effective Tax Rate.
