The Great Imperium of Derkma is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by The Great Emperor Kaul C'tan with an iron fist, and remarkable for its closed borders, barren, inhospitable landscape, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.017 billion Derkmen are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Law & Order, and Administration are also considered important, while Environment and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Great City of Dstan. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 84.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Derkman economy, worth a remarkable 2,050 trillion Golden Denarii a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 340,708 Golden Denarii, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,832,269 per year while the poor average 32,997, a ratio of 55.5 to 1.

Citizens who fail to follow the official national religion are executed, conscientious objectors are hanged as traitors, universities now offer degrees in cycling etiquette, and it turns out that trees grow on Golden Denarii. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Derkma's national animal is the The Great Lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Belief of the God Emperor Yehoshua.

Derkma is ranked 1,465^th in the world and 5^th in Christians for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 8,944.17 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
