The Federal Republic of Danthia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by El Presendente with an even hand, and renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 3.401 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 Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bahia Azul. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Danthian economy, worth 459 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 134,999 Pesos, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 445,630 per year while the poor average 30,596, a ratio of 14.6 to 1.

Any body part that can be cut off a person is no longer considered to be their property, citizens are remarkably well involved in the political process, organ donation is compulsory, and children who can't memorize their multiplication tables are sent to the mines. 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 18,250^th in the world and 350^th in Europe for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,087.88 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
