The Democratic States of Daft is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Leader with a fair hand, and remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, unlimited-speed roads, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 23.967 billion Daftians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, corrupt, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Law & Order, Industry, and Defense are also considered important, while Spirituality and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Daft City. The average income tax rate is 77.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Daftian economy, worth a remarkable 4,537 trillion books a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 189,310 books, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

The thin blue line is composed of picketing police officers demanding better pensions, no-one can foil the ambitions of Big Aluminium, newly-peaceful nations are forced to use assault rifles as farming tools due to a lack of funds for purchasing anything else, and mall countdown clocks warn that there are only 364 more shopping days until Maxxmas. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Daft's national animal is the Goethite, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Daft is ranked 10,075^th in the world and 1^st in Ikebukuro for Largest Populations, with 24.0 billion capita.
