The People's Republic of Dresderstan is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, infamous sell-swords, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 9.105 billion Dresderstanians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aventador. The average income tax rate is 31.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Dresderstanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,122 trillion Pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 123,279 Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

It is typical to be greeted by a string of curse words in Dresderstanian restaurants, census workers are having a hard time figuring out who is actually living in Dresderstan after the ban on emigration was lifted, gardeners must genetically test weeds for unique traits before digging them up, and the government loves seeing the little people fight. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dresderstan's national animal is the Hawk, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Dresderstan is ranked 91,990^th in the world and 4,821^st in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 66.9 law-abiding acts per hour.
