The August Royal Confederacy of Dasteria is a massive, genial nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 1.647 billion Dasterians 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 medium-sized government prioritizes Welfare, although Industry, Education, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Law & Order and Spirituality are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 34.3%.
The powerhouse Dasterian economy, worth 99.6 trillion Dasters a year, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is 60,480 Dasters, with the richest citizens earning 5.8 times as much as the poorest.
There is a growing belief that consciousness is a simulated illusion within a computer-generated reality, international humanitarian organisations are applauding the government for ending the death penalty, the smell of napalm in the morning is usually alongside grilled Sparrow, and a milk bath costs more than bathing in money. Crime is a problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Dasteria's national animal is the Sparrow, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Dasteria is ranked 177,989th in the world and 1st in A Place for Most Stationary, with 82.4213708614 days.
