The Presidential Republic of Donistan is a massive, safe nation, ruled by President Poorya Mohammadiev with an even hand, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, sprawling nuclear power plants, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed population of 2.354 billion Donistanians 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 Industry, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mercantis. The average income tax rate is 28.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Donistanian economy, worth 324 trillion Donistani Soms a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 137,686 Donistani Soms, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

The nightly news reports prosaically on the government blindly throwing money at despotic kidnappers, The Very Hungry Caterpillar has been banned for advocating gluttony, artificial intelligences seeking exciting work are overcome with ennui, and a new Brasilistani government has become a daily report on the main evening news. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Donistan's national animal is the Sheep, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Sunni Islam.

Donistan is ranked 58,562^nd in the world and 2^nd in Bisscaso Islands for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 4,784.49 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
