DIO Trivia

This list consists of multiple trivia facts, or "fun facts" about the DIO

## Law

* Due to a loophole in the DIO’s laws, it is technically illegal to consume the flesh of a man named Frank who is between the ages of 22 and 31 during the full moon of any month that begins with the letter “A”, except for if the man named Frank has a younger sister who lives in a country that has a Scrabble score that is more than 17 and is either between 6 and 8 months pregnant or has a net worth that is a multiple of 173 .
* Several DIO documents have had certain information censored in order to protect national security.  This policy was put into place after a lengthy, well-reasoned, and professionally written proposal was submitted by Dr. Placeholder McDoctorate. The proposal was reviewed and, after being determined to be logically sound, the Policy of Censored Information was set.
* DIO laws are not only applicable to DIO citizens, but to all other entities as well. Currently, 96 diseases, 49 animals, 55 types of poison/venom, and 3 pieces of space debris have been arrested. Of these approximately 69% had were executed.
* The most severe punishment ever sentenced in the DIO was the 450 consecutive executions of prisoner D-9341, Benjamin Walker. He was tried and convicted for 73 counts of [REDACTED].
* As a citizens of the DIO, all DIO citizens have sworn their lives to the State. As such, to allow their lives to end is to allow the destruction of State property. Thus, it is illegal for a DIO citizen to die without the permission of the State. Punishment for this is [REDACTED], as well as the forced removal of the criminal’s [REDACTED].
* As Heaven and Hell have both been claimed as territories of the DIO, the realm of Purgatory has been renovated and transformed into the headquarters for the DIO Customs and Immigration office, every citizen traveling to Heaven or Hell must first pass through DIO Customs and Immigration.
* Unless an assassination appointment is made or his term comes to an end, it has been made physically impossible for The Glorious Comrade Leader Man Stalin to die, through the use of [REDACTED].
* When meeting, it is customary that the governors of each district of the DIO must do battle with one another before any meeting is to take place. These battles are filmed and broadcasted to televisions all across the country, and are very entertaining for DIO citizens to watch. The Glorious Comrade Leader Man Stalin once attempted to employ this same ritual with an International meeting discussing foreign trade policies with the (now former) country of Tanjentia. Unfortunately, it led to a war when The Glorious Comrade Leader Man Stalin claimed victory in the ritual. All changes to world maps were, once again, paid in full by the DIO
* When a citizen or soldier of the DIO loses or is separated from their state-issued firearm, within 20 seconds, no matter where they are, the DIO police force will arrive to either reunite the citizen with their firearm or, if necessary,  simply execute them there for being separated from their firearm. One such event occurred on [REDACTED] during a training exercise in which a DIO citizen was willingly taken prisoner by an enemy nation and placed into a secure bunker surrounded by landmines, reinforced concrete walls, and [REDACTED]. When the citizen’s firearm was confiscated, the DIO police force arrived at the location within 19.93 seconds. The citizen was officially pardoned for not having his firearm as the event was a training exercise for the DIO police force.

## Economics

* The average tax rate in the DIO is 0%. The DIO government has enough money that it does not require any from its citizens. (Quote from The Glorious Comrade Leader Man Stalin: “We have our own damn money.”)
* Most of the citizens of the DIO own some kind of watercraft. The richest citizens typically have a destroyer, or even an aircraft carrier, while the poorest citizens usually only have a yacht.

## Weapons and Warfare

* On February [REDACTED], the DIO performed a test detonation of a prototype nuclear warhead in the country of [REACTED]. The test resulted in [DATA EXPUNGED]. The resulting cost of updating world maps was paid in full by the DIO.
* DIO soldiers are taught combat techniques to conserve ammunition. This is not due to a lack of bullets, but rather because soldiers may be rewarded for having a high kill to bullets fired ratio. The official current record is 2316 kills with 7 bullets, belonging to Commander Insert Name, set in 1908 during the Kingdom of Heaven Invasion. Due to technicalities, the events of [REDACTED], during which Agent Dietrich Lurk achieved 3008 kills with -2 bullets does not count.
* After their mandatory conscription period, DIO citizens may remain in the military if they prefer. They will be given the option of remaining in their current military position or moving to a new one. Other positions include border patrol, technological warfare, and positions in other divisions of the External Affairs branch.
* The DIO Retirement Office has been equipped with rifles that shoot bullets made up of a Stalinium-[REDACTED] alloy. This allows members of the Retirement Office to retire citizens without said citizens being transported to Heaven, Hell, or any of the associated subsections (Valhalla, Elysium, Aaru, etc.).
* Once students in DIO schools reach the age of twelve, they are given their first Enemy of the State to kill, essentially starting their K/D ratio. This has proven to be effective in reducing the crime rate of the DIO.

## Technology and Research

* After a DIO-funded test, approximately 1 in 15 people are allergic to Moon Dust. As such, NASA has a dedicated field of scientists whose jobs are to visit the Moon, collect Moon Dust, and bring it back to Earth for allergy testing.
* Thanks to the DIO cloning technology, DIO restaurants have a monopoly on delicacies such as Triceratops steak, Dodo egg, and T-Rex.
* In 2027, members of the Technological Advancement branch collaborated with members of the Internal Affairs branch to develop a supercomputer to calculate the total money reserves of the DIO. The supercomputer, powered by concentrated Stalinium, was theoretically capable of counting to 426 times the value of infinity. During a test run of the DIO’s map-updating funds, the supercomputer gave an output of “OVERFLOW ERROR”.
* The Technological Advancement branch of the DIO has an experiment  suggestion box that is open to the public. Whenever a member of the Technological Advancement branch is feeling bored, they may take one of the suggestions and conduct an experiment based on the suggestion. Some of the more interesting suggestions include “What would happen if a nuke were to be dropped on the Yellowstone supervolcano?” and “What would happen if [REDACTED] of Stalinium were to be injected into a human?”.
* Due to the close proximity of DIO citizens to the country’s supply of Stalinium, it has had an affect on the general population of the DIO, each citizen is much stronger than the average human anywhere else on Earth, with the average 25 year old DIO citizen being able to hold off at least a small military force.
* On August 14, 2003, the DIO detonated an experimental anti-mnemonic bomb. Due to [DATA EXPUNGED], the anti-memetic bomb malfunction removed any and all knowledge of the DIO from everyone outside of the DIO. All records of the DIO’s existence that existed outside of the DIO, whether physical, digital, or otherwise, were also deleted. In addition, nobody outside the DIO is capable of learning or remembering anything about the DIO without physically going to the DIO and becoming a citizen. As a result of the effects of the anti-mnemetic bomb, the outside world is no longer aware of the achievements of the DIO. Government officials are in debate about whether to attempt to undo this, and if it even can be undone.

## Miscellaneous

* The national beverage of the DIO is Tri Poloski (███% alcohol)
* The official national animal of the DIO is the dragon (but not the peaceful majestic kind, but rather the kind that kills its enemies with nuclear fire)
* Whenever a DIO citizen mentions something that another citizen does not have the appropriate security clearance to hear, they verbally say the phrase “[REDACTED]” instead. It is understood which [REDACTED] they are referring to. Additionally, [REDACTED].
* So far, only 8 citizens of the DIO have died from a method other than a state execution or retirement. 7 of these citizens were bombers who bravely sacrificed their lives during the time before the DIO had developed jets that are faster than the explosion from a nuclear warhead. The other death was when Adam Ivanov ‘commited suicide’ by ‘shooting himself’ 96 times in the back with an AK-47 rifle, ‘jumped off’ a building, ‘covered himself’ in gasoline, and ‘set himself’ on fire. It is assumed that this was due to his guilt over attempting to reveal State secrets in his video “[REDACTED]: The Truth About [REDACTED]”.
* It is said that the average DIO citizen has the ability to slam a revolving door shut. Of course, this is unproven, as DIO citizens typically mature out of this at around 3 years of age.
* It is said that the current leader, The Glorious Comrade Leader Man Stalin, is so powerful, he helped to build the hospital he was born in.
* Since the invasion of Mount Olympus and the supposed killing of Zeus, Mount Olympus and the surrounding country of Greece has since been renamed to “Olympus Crater”.
* The saying “Godspeed” when wishing someone a good journey has changed meaning entirely in the DIO. With the introduction of the S-469 [REDACTED] to our fleet, God-Speed is actually an attainable amount of speed, approximately 343 times the speed of light.
