The Dictatorship of Duby is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Adalard Romano with an iron fist, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 12.087 billion Dubyians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Romagrad. The average income tax rate is 74.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Dubyian economy, worth 984 trillion florins a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 81,450 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Shivering secretaries type letters under torrential downpours in open-roof offices, businesses have become paranoid as waves of lawsuits sweep the nation, Harry Potter conventions are closely watched by the government for any signs of 'dueling', and travellers are often forcibly evicted by torch-bearing mobs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Duby's national animal is the Cougar, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Duby is ranked 39,141^st in the world and 116^th in Conch Kingdom for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 5,516.02 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
