The West Ham and Arsenal Legend of Declan Rice is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its public floggings, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 3.783 billion Declan Riceans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 73.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Declan Ricean economy, worth 511 trillion Monies a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 135,271 Monies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

The government seizes all major gold finds, new safety regulations require all cars manufactured in Declan Rice to be bombproof, tourists soak their luggage in boiling water before unpacking, and Leader's peyote-induced "let's all just be friends" speech is trending world-wide. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Declan Rice's national animal is the Card, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Declan Rice is ranked 172,479^th in the world and 26^th in Football for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 965.21 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
