The Democratic States of Didt is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Mide with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.276 billion Didtians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Didt york. The average income tax rate is 62.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Didtian economy, worth 293 trillion USES 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 a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. 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 an impressive 129,142 USES, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

'Totally Not Partisan News' is a line item on the government budget, giggling teens are asked to put their mouths on rubber dolls, Didtian military drills look more like joint-Corsair exercises than anything else, and infantry are nicknamed "mushrooms" because they get fed crap and are left in the dark. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Didt's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Lube.

Didt is ranked 23,840^th in the world and 21^st in Corsair for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 53.18 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
