The Federal Republic of Danthia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by El Presendente with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 3.419 billion Danthians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bahia Azul. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Danthian economy, worth 463 trillion Pesos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 135,492 Pesos, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 447,259 per year while the poor average 30,708, a ratio of 14.6 to 1.

Organ donation is compulsory, children who can't memorize their multiplication tables are sent to the mines, truancy is as easy as clicking a camera icon, and life-saving resuscitation is denied based on decades-old teenage diaries that declare "I want to die before I get old". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Danthia's national animal is the Crimson Kraken, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Danthia is ranked 69,792^nd in the world and 367^th in Europe for Most Corrupt Governments, with 26.11 kickbacks per hour.
