The Commonwealth of Dalior is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by President Stefano De Luca with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 9.046 billion Daliorians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Napoli. The average income tax rate is 52.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Daliorian economy, worth a remarkable 1,085 trillion Lire a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 120,030 Lire, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Spontaneous nocturnal decapitation is considered 'death by natural causes' for enemies of Dalior, money always talks but the taboo subject of death just brings silence, an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents, and President Stefano De Luca is too busy listening to praise to get any work done. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dalior's national animal is the Italian Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Roman Catholic Christianity.

Dalior is ranked 40,828^th in the world and 10^th in Modorra for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 209.23 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
