The Confederacy of Dtoc is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Chairman Nokus Islia with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ban on automobiles, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 25.341 billion Dtocians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Atiai. The average income tax rate is 89.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Dtocian economy, worth a remarkable 2,950 trillion Tkyms 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 large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. 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 116,434 Tkyms, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Not even adulthood can save you from truant officers, opposition party MPs campaign shirtless to show off their numerous lash scars, political debates are all but a distant memory, and an aboriginal talking stick is used for leaders' debates at election time. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dtoc's national animal is the arctic hare, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Violetism.

Dtoc is ranked 207,389^th in the world and 785^th in Concord for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -2.37 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
