The Watchfires of Rotten in Denmark is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, keen interest in outer space, and soft-spoken computers. The hard-nosed population of 28.585 billion Rotten in Denmarkians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Healthcare, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Administration is ignored. The average income tax rate is 44.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Rotten in Denmarkian economy, worth a remarkable 1,695 trillion $$s a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Information Technology, Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 59,319 $$s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Crop circles are intently studied by investigators with questionable merits, literally voiceless people are unable to protest when food and water are denied to them, flash floods that dams could have controlled regularly ravage small towns in mountain valleys, and muscular women are banned from competing in sporting competitions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rotten in Denmark's national animal is the Dolly Varden, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Rotten in Denmark is ranked 189,514^th in the world and 1^st in Allied Socialist Nations for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 600.64 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
