The Colony of DS33 is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The democratic population of 4.443 billion DS33ians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 14.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient DS33ian economy, worth 179 trillion Citas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Retail, Furniture Restoration, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 40,467 Citas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. DS33's national animal is the Vippertooth Dragon.

DS33 is ranked 115,395^th in the world and 1^st in Democratic states for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,883.57 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
