The Dictatorship of Dethae is a tiny, safe nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, state-planned economy, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 12 million Dethaeans 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 enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 70.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The developing Dethaean economy, worth 372 billion Deth Dollas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Pizza Delivery, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 31,038 Deth Dollas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dethae's national animal is the Real Nga Raven Ft Junior Joesph Cody, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.
