“Skin on skin, let the love begin”

The Woodhouse Sanctum of Dacres is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its zero percent divorce rate, frequent executions, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 24.8 billion Dacresians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 49.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Dacresian economy, worth a remarkable 1,625 trillion $$s a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 65,543 $$s, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A speech a day keeps climate change away, internet ads promising "hot singles in your area" are even less accurate than they used to be, asking 'does my bum look big in this?' leads to 30 hours of self-esteem classes, and sleep-deprived officials are known to collapse after late night revision for their examinations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dacres's national animal is the swordfish, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Dacres is ranked 175,189^th in the world and 1^st in Ligurian Sea for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 33,230.48 Standard Monetary Units.
