The State of Dalgetaec is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its complete lack of public education, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 31.423 billion Dalgetaecians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.

The very strong Dalgetaecian economy, worth a remarkable 1,219 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Gambling, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 38,797 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 263,773 per year while the poor average 2,084, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Voting is voluntary and Dalgetaec has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Dalgetaec's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Dalgetaec is ranked 12,414^th in the world and 6^th in Coffee Shop for Lowest Overall Tax Burden, scoring 120.83 on the Hayek Index.
