The Snekdom of Dakutal is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Snekula with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory vegetarianism, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 10.308 billion Dakutali 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 tiny, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dakutal. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Dakutali economy, worth a remarkable 2,826 trillion Geres a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an amazing 274,211 Geres, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

The dearly departed are remembered with a good meal, the world still seems flat to some people in space, powerful x-ray machines used by the Customs Department can see into the homes of nearby residents, and nobody is quite sure what the government's last policy decision was but fans are saying it'll make Dakutal great again. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Dakutal's national animal is the sea snake, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Fazhar.

Dakutal is ranked 62,879th in the world and 2nd in The Lunch Table for Largest Populations, with 10.3 billion capita.
