The Free Land of Duskari is a tiny, safe nation, notable for its state-planned economy, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical population of 10 million Duskari 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 enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 70.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The imploded Duskarian economy, worth 68.8 billion Bits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 6,880 Bits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bowling teams spend more time looking at their phones than the pins, bizarre-looking creatures called 'Catdogs' dominate wildlife preserves, maximum security fish farms leave caged salmon pining for the fjords, and in the mighty jungle the lion once again sleeps tonight. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Duskari's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Duskari is ranked 285,298th in the world and 541st in The Leftist Assembly for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -9.17 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
