The People's Republic of Domenius is a tiny, genial nation, notable for its daily referendums, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 14 million Domeniusians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 73.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The weak Domeniusian economy, worth 402 billion tierces 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 led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 28,701 tierces, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There's no such thing as a safe bet, the jails are alive with the sound of birdsong, skateparks can be found in every city, and the bum of Leader has been voted the most recognisable in Domenius. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Domenius's national animal is the cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Domenius is ranked 53,239^th in the world and 415^th in The Leftist Assembly for Smartest Citizens, with 42.6 quips per hour.
