The Discoverian Enclave of DiscRete is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, smutty television, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless, devout population of 33.397 billion DiscRetionaries are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Spirituality, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 32.5%.

The very strong DiscRetionary economy, worth a remarkable 1,704 trillion discs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Gambling, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is 51,029 discs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 145,425 per year while the poor average 14,280, a ratio of 10.2 to 1.

Protests are prohibited from blocking traffic, "The Daily Sacrifice" is a routine segment of morning news shows, archaeological discoveries are often followed by mysterious hamster abductions, and several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. DiscRete's national animal is the butterfly, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is the Church of the Holy Truth.

DiscRete is ranked 80,614^th in the world and 1^st in Esteria for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,253.77 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
