The Empire of Deuterra is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Jean Christophe I with an even hand, and notable for its vat-grown people, compulsory military service, and aversion to nipples. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 21.173 billion Deuterrians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government is dominated by the Department of Defense, although Education and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Paris. The average income tax rate is 98.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Deuterran economy, worth an astonishing 11,386 trillion Euros a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 537,786 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Weather forecasts regularly cover meteor showers, solar death ray construction will commence as soon as it rains Euros, robotic spouses prove to be just as imperfect as flesh and blood ones, and the nation is committed to nuclear rearmament. Crime is totally unknown. Deuterra's national animal is the Búho, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Deuterra is ranked 59,709^th in the world and 6^th in Union Mundial for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,701.03 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
