The Realm of Desdemonan is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Azrael Desdemona with an iron fist, and notable for its closed borders, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 4.712 billion Desdemonans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Desdemonan City. The average income tax rate is 63.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Desdemonan economy, worth 213 trillion Desdems a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 45,204 Desdems, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Pinkerton agents are called in to forcibly break up white collar strikes, prime commercial land is being swamped with archaeological teams, daily newspapers are permitted to run only pro-government stories, and politicians take citizens for idiots. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Desdemonan's national animal is the Hydra, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Unknown Religion.

Desdemonan is ranked 103,793^rd in the world and 10^th in The Galactic Union for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring 5,710.55 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
