The Grand Duchy of Paperino is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Carl Barks with a fair hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, digital currency, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 13.109 billion Mighty Ducks 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, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Duckburg. The average income tax rate is 61.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Donaldvillois economy, worth a remarkable 1,727 trillion topolino dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 131,789 topolino dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Under love's heavy burden Carl Barks sinks lower in the political right's esteem, programmes of questionable content are shown at peak-hours, lion-reed-vulture-hand-reed-mouth is how Carl Barks is spelt now, and school plays were recently banned due to concerns of child endangerment. Crime is totally unknown. Paperino's national animal is the duck, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Disney.

Paperino is ranked 132,848^th in the world and 3^rd in Lewisham for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 1,767.83 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
