The Oppressed Peoples of The Republic of Deseret is a mid-sized, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service and punitive income tax rates. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 62 million Deseretians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 54.4%.

The Deseretian economy, worth 2.67 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 43,059 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Republic of Deseret's national animal is the honey bee.

The Republic of Deseret is ranked 83,147^th in the world and 19^th in Changuu for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 54.4 Effective Tax Rate.
