The Grand Duchy of Danoukkalis is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Mahon Tarantino with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and zero percent divorce rate. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.197 billion Danoukkalians 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Felscou. The average income tax rate is 83.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Danoukkalian economy, worth 255 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 116,387 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

There's a shortage of swinging hot spots as land development grinds to a halt, urban high-volume mailers now receive their mail via chauffeur-driven limousines, the military refers to helpless combatants offering surrender as "sitting ducks", and the nation has an international reputation for compassion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Danoukkalis's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Itzianism.

Danoukkalis is ranked 12,980^th in the world and 745^th in Osiris for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 4,535.43 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
