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.
There are no areas in Dunnathia that directly border the oceanic aqueous regions that surround Pye, however, Dunnathia has made alliances with the nations of Empress Emily and Windows NT to allow its citizens easy access to oceanic recreation.
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."

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 following is the NationStates report from the Gregorian Calendar date of 1/4/2006:
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.
History
The Native Peoples
The area of land that is now called Dunnathia was once a desolate wasteland, environmentally speaking. Then, one day, during a year that nobody really knows (historians estimate the year 15,000 years Before the Battle of Yavin of Star Wars, which will henceforth be shown as "BBY"), the first human inhabitants of Pye arrived at Pye via a variety of routes, primarily via the ocean. For example, MacLeod Douglas MCI arrived at Pye on his sailing devices, formerly known as "boats," and settled on the northwestern area of the continent-island of Pye. The first Dunnathians on the island, who were at one time members of the Crosoftmi tribe, found a large herd of green koopa troopas (this is also debated furiously by historians, the opposing point of view suggests that the early Dunnathians in fact crossed a frozen ice sheet), and, without further ado, decided to utilize the Koopa abilities of flight (or their feet) to cross into the unknown oceans.
Those peoples who crossed the ocean were considered very brave by other tribal members, who stayed behind. Those who stayed behind found a massive supply of oil, and are today known as the Ararebs. Nevertheless, since communications in the stone age were limited only to dial-up internet connections, and therefore any information about this discovery would have taken years to download on the stone age internet connections that existed in the year 14,978 BBY. Promptly upon arriving at Pye, the Dunnathians immediately moved toward the center of the continent-island (they were not the best swimmers), and painted a large area of it green with non-toxic paint.
Culture
Athletics
Dunnathia is renowned for its incredible magnitude of athleticism, including its extreme chess or speed typing or even the paper lift-a-thon.
Technology
Dunnathia is a highly advanced, technophilic nation, which has banned iPods, iMacs, eMacs, and all forms of applesauce. Nevertheless, the nation is very progressive in the field of technology, and it has produced the leader of a corporate “bigwig” monopolizing computer software giant by the name of Pythagorean Software. According to the results of a scientific survey of 1.0000 people and his guinea pig, Dunnathians are resentful of both Malus Computing and Pythagorean Software.
Theater
The most popular movie in the nation is, without a doubt, Star Wars Episode VI. However, other blockbuster hits such as Baltrion and Musa Crisis, Bigtopians DON’T say the darndest things, The Posers, and Return of the WiFi Moochers have generated millions of ions for very wealthy film producers.
Gaming
As for video gaming, the most popular video game in the nation is, without a doubt, Star Wars Battlefront II. Video gaming is encouraged in the nation because of its dramatic effects toward improving hand-eye coordination in a desperate attempt to increase its already amazing athletic abilities.
Government
The Dunnathian government can be contacted at the very real e-mail address of Dunnathia@aol.com. The penalty for spamming the government is a tax increase. However, the competent government attempts to respond quickly to all messages that it receives, except when it is distracted by the various shiny objects that grace the Green House such as the 8,000 pound chandeliers that are made of diamond. On a side note, a large percentage of government spending was reported in the ever-so elusive "Other" category.
