The Grand Duchy of D-Estinia is a large, efficient nation, notable for its infamous sell-swords, strictly enforced bedtime, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 87 million D-Estinians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.7%.

The very strong D-Estinian economy, worth 6.22 trillion D-Escs a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is 71,496 D-Escs, with the richest citizens earning 9.2 times as much as the poorest.

Street graffiti indicates the political party that dominates a neighborhood, traumatised refugees have a full bedpan shoved into their hands along with their immigration papers, midnight raids drag couples from their homes in the name of decency, and the only way to escape lengthy prison terms is in a body bag. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. D-Estinia's national animal is the Deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

D-Estinia is ranked 81,393^rd in the world and 6^th in Dati Danneggiati for Highest Wealthy Incomes, with 195,031 Standard Monetary Units.
