The Grand Duchy of Paperino is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Carl Barks with a fair hand, and remarkable for its national health service, complete lack of prisons, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 7.872 billion Mighty Ducks 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 medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Duckburg. The average income tax rate is 57.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Donaldvillois economy, worth 999 trillion topolino dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 126,920 topolino dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Drones are unable to lift the weight of their accompanying paperwork, teenage TV characters are played by thirty-year-olds by the end of the second season, trade policy consists of ganging up on the new guy, and weekends are spent tilting at windmills. Crime is totally unknown. Paperino's national animal is the duck, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Disney.

Paperino is ranked 47,042^nd in the world and 3^rd in Lewisham for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 4,590.63 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
