The United Archipelago of The Dolphin Isles is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by King Zekali with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and national health service. The compassionate, cheerful population of 26.932 billion Dolphinesians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Defense, and Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cinica. The average income tax rate is 21.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Dolphinesian economy, worth a remarkable 6,982 trillion Clams a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 259,249 Clams, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Getting an autograph has become harder than ever, "King Zekali got your tongue?" has become a popular idiom, Dolphinesian watches list strained wrists as a common side effect, and the official Dolphinesian Phrase Book weighs as much as a small child. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The Dolphin Isles's national animal is the Dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

The Dolphin Isles is ranked 233^rd in the world and 1^st in Cadrea for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring 185 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
