The Federation of Douleia is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its frequent executions, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 8.851 billion Douleians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order and Education are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14.8%.
The very strong Douleian economy, worth 599 trillion Douleumas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Retail. Average income is 67,723 Douleumas, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 399,271 per year while the poor average 5,331, a ratio of 74.9 to 1.
Jaywalking is punishable by public flogging, foreign football clubs wave the Douleian flag before every game, homeless people can be found sleeping on streets in front of unoccupied second homes, and citizens try to pass off bottlecaps they found in their backyards as historical artifacts. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Douleia's national animal is the pony, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Douleia is ranked 179,330th in the world and 170th in Drew is life Drew is love for Lowest Crime Rates, with 58.48 law-abiding acts per hour.
