The Galactic Empire of DeltaSource is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Emporer Demetrio Xavi with an iron fist, and notable for its closed borders, keen interest in outer space, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 6.129 billion Deltans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order and Industry are also considered important, while Social Policy and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Moscow. The average income tax rate is 77.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Deltan economy, worth a remarkable 1,684 trillion Delta Eagles 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, 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 an amazing 274,867 Delta Eagles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Minefields are being deployed along the border to discourage potential emigrants from trying to leave, couch potatoes are considered to be model citizens, police wait behind troop deployments in order to shoot deserters, and social care for the elderly consists of a self help leaflet and a kick on the backside. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. DeltaSource's national animal is the Phoenix, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Porayism.

DeltaSource is ranked 1,710^th in the world and 1^st in Monarchist and Democratic Alliance for Largest Black Market, with 1,681 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
