The Holy Protectorate of Devoted Decons is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Duke with an even hand, and renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, rampant corporate plagiarism, and daily referendums. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 35.618 billion Devoted Deconsians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government is primarily concerned with Spirituality, with Education, Law & Order, and Environment also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Public Transport aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vincestria. The average income tax rate is 38.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Devoted Deconsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,069 trillion talents a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is mostly comprised of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 30,039 talents, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Traumatized ex-ambassadors seek treatment for their "desk dissociation", only native-born Devoted Deconsians who have never left the nation are permitted to run for office, little children cry as their rainbow drawings are seized by the Straight-Thought Police, and getting an autograph has become harder than ever. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Devoted Decons's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Devoted Decons is ranked 156,687th in the world and 58th in Catholic for Most Stationary, with 137.04719006752 days.
