The Commonwealth of Dzurvia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Dzurvian Legislature with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, free-roaming dinosaurs, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.638 billion Dzurvians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hávena. The average income tax rate is 90.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Dzurvian economy, worth 508 trillion Meras a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 109,602 Meras, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government funds large training centres to turn Foxes into functioning members of society, every week is blindness awareness week, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, and even secular Dzurvians are shouting "Blessed are the cheesemakers!". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dzurvia's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Dzurvia is ranked 281,789th in the world and 10,499th in Osiris for Most Primitive, scoring -367.51 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
