The Holy Green Irish Empire of Dkwte is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Apo with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, unlimited-speed roads, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 24.065 billion Dkwteans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Derik. The average income tax rate is 11.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Dkwtean economy, worth a remarkable 5,409 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 224,797 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

The politician's labor union forces stage names upon candidates, riot police are stationed around paintings of violent protestors, the government is reining in public spending, and childhood friends of Apo are living it large abroad at the taxpayers' expense. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dkwte's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Catholic.

Dkwte is ranked 233,654th in the world and 82nd in New Bilderberg Group for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 201.43 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
