The Authoritarian Commune of Dalzell is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Jorge Dalzell with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.731 billion Dalzellians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is dominated by the Department of Defense, although Spirituality, Law & Order, and Administration are also considered important, while Environment and Healthcare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fort Dalzell. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 73.9%.

The strong Dalzellian economy, worth 522 trillion Jorges a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Gambling. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 139,944 Jorges, with the richest citizens earning 8.7 times as much as the poorest.

The military's primary weapons are fear, surprise, ruthless efficiency, and a fanatical devotion to Jorgeism, Fort Dalzell has become the number one destination for urban exploration in Osiris, personal injury lawyers are demanding compensation from the government after recent reductions in manufacturer liability, and academics are questioning the quality of the nation's newly-reprinted science textbooks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Dalzell's national animal is the Feral Human, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Jorgeism.

Dalzell is ranked 255,072nd in the world and 8,162nd in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 17.2897806012 days.
