The Celestial Empire of Daelan is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Chancellor Yue Luanhua with a fair hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, otherworldly petting zoo, and labour-free parental leave. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 13.606 billion Daelanese hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Longjing. The average income tax rate is 78.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Daelanese economy, worth a remarkable 2,535 trillion Taels a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 186,357 Taels, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Escaped birthday balloons are torpedoed out of the sky, public spending advocates dread when the government says they're here to help, being sent to collections is more dangerous than ever, and you can touch grass without leaving your computer. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Daelan's national animal is the Dragon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Shenism.

Daelan is ranked 175,162^nd in the world and 10^th in Asamblea del Orbe for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 915.65 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
