The Constitutional Monarchy of Djurs Sommerland is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its parental licensing program, compulsory military service, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-working population of 1.877 billion Djurs Sommerlandians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 38.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Djurs Sommerlandian economy, worth 167 trillion florins a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 89,355 florins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Business owners return from long vacations to find their factories have been turned into homeless shelters, the latest guided missile cruiser "Ship-1642" has received precisely zero column inches in the press, the government has cut its subsidies for all special interest groups, and short shrift is being given to applications for political asylum from illegal immigrants. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Djurs Sommerland's national animal is the elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Djurs Sommerland is ranked 73,956^th in the world and 2,428^th in The North Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 50.99 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
