The Anarcho-Communist Alliance of Duneraven is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Lyndis Lynnsdóttir with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 9.974 billion Dunish-Refugi are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ravenholm. The average income tax rate is 99.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Dunish economy, worth a remarkable 2,388 trillion planets a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 239,514 planets, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There is no other place with more lab coats per square mile than former houses of worship, the government is ignoring the latest terrorist atrocities in Ravenholm for fear of causing a fuss, windows in Ravenholm don't have much of a view, and sales of pregnancy testing kits are booming. Crime is totally unknown. Duneraven's national animal is the Refugi raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Atheism.

Duneraven is ranked 3,511th in the world and 16th in Refugia for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 657.84 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
