The Regional Capital District of Declansburg is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Declansburg Assembly with an even hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and fear of technology. The compassionate, devout population of 6.577 billion Declansburgians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The relatively small government prioritizes Healthcare, with Administration, Education, and Environment also on the agenda, while Defense and Industry receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Declansburg Capital District. The average income tax rate is 14.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Declansburgian economy, worth 215 trillion Dáxlamic Marks 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 slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Trout Farming, Tourism, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. 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 32,839 Dáxlamic Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Aspiring authors begrudgingly help proofread issue submissions (Declansburg has found 2 easter eggs), children asking questions about science are referred to relevant sections in religious texts, cigarettes are dead-cheap, and racial and religious segregation has become rife as the various groups are loath to mingle. Crime is totally unknown. Declansburg's national animal is the Virginia Opossum, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Non-Denominational.

Declansburg is ranked 281,167^th in the world and 166^th in Declansburg for Highest Average Incomes, with 32,839.48 Standard Monetary Units.
