The Paradox of Dutch Mountainwolves is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Wolf Dutch with an even hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, complete lack of prisons, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate population of 26.339 billion Dutch Mountainwolvesians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Public Transport, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Amsterwolf. The average income tax rate is 52.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The enormous but inefficient Dutch Mountainwolvesian economy, worth a remarkable 1,003 trillion Claws a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Book Publishing, Trout Farming, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 38,110 Claws, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Shoppers have literally had their hands full since plastic bags were banned, people reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight, Dutch Mountainwolves has designated Amsterwolf as its capital city, and drunk drivers are sentenced to death. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dutch Mountainwolves's national animal is the Mountainwolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Wolfism.

Dutch Mountainwolves is ranked 16,956th in the world and 1st in The Dumpster Behind the Coffee Shop for Most Stationary, with 1,727.59040823032 days.
