The Sultanate of USS Duluth is a mammoth, safe nation, notable for its infamous sell-swords and suspicion of poets. The hard-working population of 5.036 billion USS Duluthians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 40.4%.

The USS Duluthian economy, worth 182 trillion Delta Eagles a year, is quite specialized and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Arms Manufacturing, and Pizza Delivery. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 36,204 Delta Eagles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Violetist maidens who fall for an outsider must leave their violet light districts in shame, mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field, trying to toast marshmallows in an electric fireplace just isn't the same, and money that should have gone to charities is instead spent on monitoring them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. USS Duluth's national animal is the Kitsune.

USS Duluth is ranked 56,190^th in the world and 6^th in Reserve Fleet for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 3,457.82 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
