National Information

The Republic of Dunnathia is a country in the region of Pye that is positioned in the central area of the island, slightly to the north and east, and shares land borders with many other nations, including Bambeaner, Deziree, Empress Emily, Stheneliades, Wikipolitics, Tool Shed and Yataghania. The Republic of Dunnathia is a federal constitutional representative democratic republic, with its capital in Parnigonia, in the State of Pythagoria, geographically and politically located in the center of Dunnathia.

At over 3.7 million square miles (over 9.6 million km²), the Republic of Dunnathia (including its non-contiguous and overseas states and territories) is the fourth largest country in Pye by total area. It is the region's fourth most populous nation, with nearly 300 million people.

Dunnathia's regional influence is often referred to as "eminence grise," which is French III for "gray eminence." Politicially, this means that the nation has a high but somewhat unofficial influence on regional socio-political affairs. Dunnathia was the second or third nation to join the Council of Pye, depending on the historian that is providing the information.

The nation of Dunnathia is commonly referred to as "Dunnathia," but other names that it is referred to as include "the DA," "the DNA" and, less officially, "Land of chaotic organization." The adjectival form for describing a citizen of Dunnathia as is "Dunnathian."

Current Summary

The NationStates organization provides a frequently updated national summary for Dunnathia, and many other nations.

The Republic of Dunnathia is a huge, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 289 million have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass -- devotes most of its attentions to Education, with areas such as Social Equality and Defence receiving almost no funds by comparison. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 32%. A substantial private sector is dominated by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry.

Citizens are expected to be proficient in at least five languages, record sales of 'child-whacking sticks' have been recorded, shops were recently ransacked as cigarettes returned to the shelves, and drug distribution is tightly controlled by the government. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low. Dunnathia's national animal is the koopa and its currency is the coin.

Dunnathia is ranked 1st in the region and 17,541st in the world for Largest Retail Sector.
