The Federal Republic of Danthia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by El Presendente with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 3.335 billion Danthians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bahia Azul. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Danthian economy, worth 450 trillion Pesos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 135,161 Pesos, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 436,826 per year while the poor average 31,604, a ratio of 13.8 to 1.

The central government is trying to keep things flowing, there's a bright dawn ahead for Danthia, forgetting to pay your annual passport bill is a leading cause of deportations, and many suspect the government "doth protest too much" with their curiously specific denials of conspiracy theories. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Danthia's national animal is the Crimson Kraken, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Danthia is ranked 271,078^th in the world and 1,374^th in Europe for Nicest Citizens, with 0.56 average smiles per day.
