The Hive of Delthorensdale is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Ray Sunset with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, keen interest in outer space, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, cheerful population of 18.856 billion Delth enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The minute, liberal government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sunset Manor. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Delth economy, worth a remarkable 7,015 trillion indocries a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 372,039 indocries, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.

Every product goes through extensive safety-testing by the government, Delth refer to transgender people with insults instead of pronouns, trails to natural wonders are littered with trash from reality film crews, and wilderness-dwelling hermits are surprised to find railway stations on their front doorsteps. Crime is totally unknown. Delthorensdale's national animal is the clockwork horror, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Facilitate.

Delthorensdale is ranked 1,880^th in the world and 42^nd in the South Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 3,790.03 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
