The Federated Union of Democratic Colonies is a behemoth, efficient nation, ruled by Secretary General Charles Stendahl with an even hand, and renowned for its aversion to nipples, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 51.206 billion Colonials 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.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Viconia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 27.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Colonial economy, worth an astonishing 15,190 trillion DC Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 296,653 DC Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 7.4 times as much as the poorest.

Drills and shovels have been banned as the government cracks down on any means of fracking, a faint smell of body odour can be detected at several miles' distance from the National Science Park, rumour has it Secretary General Charles Stendahl needs a calculator to multiply ten by ten, and nothing gets the party jumping like Secretary General Charles Stendahl specifying how high. Crime is totally unknown. Democratic Colonies's national animal is the Amber Hawk, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Democratic Colonies is ranked 164,385^th in the world and 3^rd in Greater Prussia for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 680.84 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
