The Matriarchy of Dhekelia is a mammoth, orderly nation, remarkable for its burgeoning bovina population. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 8.607 billion Dhekelians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 20.2%.

The Dhekelian economy, worth 396 trillion aurums a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 46,015 aurums, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, and the "war on terror" doesn't seem to be making Dhekelians any less frightened. Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dhekelia's national animal is the bovina.

Dhekelia is ranked 240,215^th in the world and 1^st in Dhekelia for Nicest Citizens, with 10.55 average smiles per day.
