The Free Land of DucKazintir is a large, safe nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 185 million DucKazintirians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 49.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish DucKazintirian economy, worth 5.75 trillion zints a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Trout Farming, Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 31,056 zints, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Worship days have replaced sick days, all guns must be registered, pet owners must make a payment if their charges leave a deposit, and the secret service is working overtime to find anyone publishing unauthorized material about Leader. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. DucKazintir's national animal is the duck, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

DucKazintir is ranked 291,207th in the world and 4,507th in eta for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 1,580.05 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
