The Commonwealth of Disillusioned Minds is a tiny, socially progressive nation, notable for its burgeoning neo dodo population. Its hard-working, intelligent population of 5 million enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The medium-sized, corrupt government is mainly concerned with Social Welfare, although Healthcare and Education are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 19%. An almost nonexistent private sector is dominated by the Furniture Restoration industry.
Crime is moderate, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Disillusioned Minds's national animal is the neo dodo and its currency is the wafer of truth.
