The Oppressed Peoples of Tribe of Dan is a very large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its pith helmet sales, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 185 million Tribe of Danians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 59.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Tribe of Danian economy, worth 5.58 trillion Danus 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, quite specialized black market in Uranium Mining, Basket Weaving, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. 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 30,182 Danus, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
