The Community of Diaktoros is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its rum-swilling pirates, state-planned economy, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 3.578 billion PollaDiktos are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Demarkhia. The average income tax rate is 30.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Diktorian economy, worth 272 trillion Drakhmas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Woodchip Exports, and Retail. Average income is 76,179 Drakhmas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

The jackhammer is considered a tool of artistic criticism, visiting dignitaries often end up cuddling in the hot tub with Leader, convicted felons are forced into slavery for their crimes, and nation-building is the new national pastime. Crime is almost non-existent. Diaktoros's national animal is the Ram.

Diaktoros is ranked 147,617th in the world and 1st in Third Empire for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 418.04 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
