The State of Dalzelle is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its complete lack of public education, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 26.226 billion Dalzelleans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.

The very strong Dalzellean economy, worth a remarkable 1,072 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 40,900 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 278,072 per year while the poor average 2,197, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Voting is voluntary, military funding has been stripped back, surveillance cameras are banned, and Dalzelle has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Dalzelle's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Dalzelle is ranked 134,249^th in the world and 3^rd in Bamako for Most Primitive, scoring -44.16 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
