The Republic of DC United is a massive, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The devout population of 2.262 billion DC Unitedians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 43.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient DC Unitedian economy, worth 120 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 53,085 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians are forced to wear portable lie detectors at all times, wildlife near farms is slowly becoming extinct, buses are widely regarded as the safest way to travel, and increasing numbers of children in DC United have different eye and hair color to their supposed fathers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. DC United's national animal is the eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

DC United is ranked 263,337^th in the world and 9,978^th in Balder for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -8.46 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
