The Republic of Daiad is a colossal, socially progressive nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 2.654 billion Daiadians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 16.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Daiadian economy, worth 137 trillion francs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 51,570 francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.
Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, and the government is reining in public spending. Crime is almost non-existent. Daiad's national animal is the swan.
Daiad is ranked 95,672nd in the world and 10th in Pacifism for Highest Poor Incomes, with 32,379.03 Standard Monetary Units.
