The Empire of El domico is a large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 56 million El domicoans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Law & Order, and Welfare also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. The average income tax rate is 51.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The struggling El domicoan economy, worth 939 billion pratas 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, Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. 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 16,773 pratas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Gambling is outlawed, both diets and economic output are growing leaner with recent restrictions to free trade, prime real estate is devoted to wind farms and solar energy generators, and the Treasury has been accused of flushing money down the toilet. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. El domico's national animal is the águia, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

El domico is ranked 12,424^th in the world and 38^th in Refugia for Most Income Equality, scoring 87.78 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
