The Dominion of Des Sova is a titanic, efficient nation, renowned for its burgeoning hawk population. The hard-working, democratic population of 11.114 billion Des Sovans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, with Healthcare, Welfare, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.7%.

The very strong Des Sovan economy, worth 604 trillion rubledollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Cheese Exports, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 54,426 rubledollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 181,151 per year while the poor average 12,185, a ratio of 14.9 to 1.

Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Des Sova's national animal is the hawk, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Des Sova is ranked 281,933^rd in the world and 1^st in ccd reform committee for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -27.39 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
