The Armed Republic of Danlina is a very large, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 144 million Danlinians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 34.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Danlinian economy, worth 8.55 trillion Danlinian Lire a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 59,376 Danlinian Lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Tech-mad citizens think that the laser-powered bread-slicer uPhone App is the coolest thing since sliced bread, elections are won by the candidate who makes the best 'yo mama' jokes, Danlinians submit requests for a date in writing with an enclosed RSVP card, and the arms industry is strictly regulated. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Danlina's national animal is the Hooded Crow.

Danlina is ranked 146,896^th in the world and 6,334^th in the West Pacific for Highest Workforce Participation Rate, with 54.55 Workforce Participation Rate.
