Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Serene Republic of Demincia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Il Mentore with an even hand, and renowned for its punitive income tax rates. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 3.318 billion have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Social Equality. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Demincia City. The average income tax rate is 55%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Tourism industry.

The Supreme Court vehemently protects civil rights and the right to privacy, the nation's infamous boot camp is more brutal than most battlefields, the government has cut taxes in the face of widespread tax evasion, and travel bureaus double as recruiting centers for national intelligence agencies. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Demincia's national animal is the Penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, its national religion is The Creed, and its currency is the Vatya.

Demincia is ranked 40th in Aluvean Seas and 96,212th in the world for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 4 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
