The Democratic States of Duruganistan is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Duru von Llama with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 1.079 billion Duruganistanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Durugan-Llama. The average income tax rate is 81.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Duruganistanian economy, worth 76.5 trillion Dururuas a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 70,912 Dururuas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Everyone hates people who encourage hate, politicians who vacation in East Lebatuck lose their jobs upon their return, increasing inclusiveness is a sign of the times, and the family of Duru von Llama bite their thumbs at paparazzi intrusions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Duruganistan's national animal is the Llama, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Duruganistan is ranked 176,859^th in the world and 84^th in Philosophers for Most Primitive, scoring -68.57 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
