The United States of Daniel25 is a titanic, efficient nation, notable for its pith helmet sales, compulsory military service, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 13.584 billion Daniel25ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 68.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Daniel25ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,286 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 168,292 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 497,442 per year while the poor average 44,747, a ratio of 11.1 to 1.

The fattest folk in Daniel25 look to be the happiest ones, every day's an auto-de-fé day, the saying "when pigs fly" has been changed to "when the lights work", and crops are flattened as farmers bludgeon insects to death. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Daniel25's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Daniel25 is ranked 62,662^nd in the world and 26^th in New Bilderberg Group for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,625.83 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
