The Second Socialist Republic of Doundaly is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Kenton Rowe with an iron fist, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 8.947 billion Doundalians 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 relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pratka. The average income tax rate is 20.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Doundalian economy, worth a remarkable 1,314 trillion galds a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 146,968 galds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.8 times as much as the poorest.

Foreign powers often deal with problems that Doundaly can't handle, for 25 galds tourists can gawk at the site of national tragedy, one does not simply walk into the tundra, and the government is using tax revenues to provide jobs for the poor. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Doundaly's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Doundaly is ranked 38,743rd in the world and 938th in the South Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 75 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
