The Duckdom of DuckIsland is a massive, orderly nation, renowned for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The cynical population of 1.053 billion ducks 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 government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Duck City. The average income tax rate is 34.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient duck economy, worth 41.7 trillion Duck Coins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Soda Sales, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 39,633 Duck Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's official head of religious affairs is an atheist, elections have been outlawed, the number of students attending university has reached a record high, and DuckIsland has designated New Duck City as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. DuckIsland's national animal is the Duck, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

DuckIsland is ranked 70,427^th in the world and 2^nd in Fanon Antarctica for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 1,575.75 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
