The Confederacy of Dakelh is a mammoth, orderly nation, notable for its compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 6.37 billion Dakelhians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 12.1%.

The strong Dakelhian economy, worth 386 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Cheese Exports, and Tourism. Average income is 60,689 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

Wanting a better life for your child is prohibited by a clause in the criminal code, rebuilding efforts for a recently destroyed cathedral aren't expected to be completed for another century, Leader has just been declared ruler of Dakelh in an international press conference, and a major religion has been named as Dakelh's national religion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dakelh's national animal is the bear.

Dakelh is ranked 78,040^th in the world and 33^rd in Terranova for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,959.33 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
