The Special Cooperative Zone of Dacaro is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Miku Kiri-Barafort with a fair hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, pith helmet sales, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 8.734 billion Dacarans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Izacoji. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Dacaran economy, worth a remarkable 2,250 trillion krudas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 257,623 krudas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The fire brigade often deal with cases of burnt toast, employers are finding it hard to screen candidates now that everyone gets A grades in their exams, arguments about toilet seats being left up or down get surprisingly heated, and the army consists of only generals and grunts. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dacaro's national animal is the blahaj, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Dacaro is ranked 332,896^th in the world and 578^th in The Communist Bloc for Highest Disposable Incomes, with zero Standard Monetary Units.
