The Peaceful Easy Feeling of Dar es Saalam is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Me with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, public floggings, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 13.59 billion Lamis are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dodoma. The average income tax rate is 90.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Dar es Saalamian economy, worth a remarkable 2,065 trillion Gold Almighty Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 151,974 Gold Almighty Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The nation grinds to a halt on the anniversary of every marginally noteworthy event, dentists routinely perform open heart surgery, you gots to be part of the Party to get in to the party, and the nation has nearly as many history museums as Lamis. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dar es Saalam's national animal is the Orca, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Catholicsm.

Dar es Saalam is ranked 4,004^th in the world and 142^nd in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 14,927.22 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
