The Crimson States of Ode Duddis is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Czar Emperor Dave Malvorick with an iron fist, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, sprawling nuclear power plants, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 15.696 billion Duddisians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Malvorick Square. The average income tax rate is 86.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Duddisian economy, worth a remarkable 5,448 trillion 🔱 Dubloons 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, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Retail. 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 amazing 347,148 🔱 Dubloons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations", wildlife near farms is slowly becoming extinct, children who display even minimal sporting aptitude are immediately assigned a personal trainer, and builders across Ode Duddis are blocked up with orders for new public loos. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ode Duddis's national animal is the Wolvinte, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Malvorisim🏛️.

Ode Duddis is ranked 308,094^th in the world and 728^th in Europe for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -12.57 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
