The United States of Daniel25 is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 13.613 billion Daniel25ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 69.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Daniel25ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,280 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 167,517 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 485,850 per year while the poor average 45,745, a ratio of 10.6 to 1.

Photographers can be found hiding behind the curtains in Leader's bedroom, the nation's skies are now a wasteland, the inner circle of Leader is looking more and more like a pink triangle, and compass sales have gone south. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Daniel25's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Daniel25 is ranked 55,883^rd in the world and 22^nd in New Bilderberg Group for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 4,452.69 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
