The Armed Republic of Outer Dura is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Arin Stormwall with an iron fist, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, public floggings, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 1.183 billion Outer Durans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Education also on the agenda, while Welfare and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Blackrock. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 56.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Outer Duran economy, worth 178 trillion Sigils a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 151,111 Sigils, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 545,468 per year while the poor average 29,904, a ratio of 18.2 to 1.

'Mountain Doobie' is widely regarded as the nation's favourite drink, the automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, the citizenship exam requires years of study to actually pass, and new safety regulations require all cars manufactured in Outer Dura to be bombproof. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Outer Dura's national animal is the Great Arac, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Violence.

Outer Dura is ranked 240,638th in the world and 5,656th in the Rejected Realms for Most Average, scoring 28.03 on the Average Standardized Normality Scale.
