The Armed Holy Land of Du Khan is a huge, orderly nation, notable for its triple-decker prams, aversion to nipples, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 951 million Du Khanians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 67.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Du Khanian economy, worth 128 trillion Du Khans a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 134,672 Du Khans, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Whenever pilots have to bail out the government bails out their company, illegal book-trafficking rings dominate the black market, the nation's drinking water tends to glow green at night, and a survey of the nation's rivers and children has shown that pesticide levels are at an all-time regional high. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Du Khan's national animal is the Mountain Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Du Khan is ranked 308,839^th in the world and 16^th in The Axis of Evil for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 41.35 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
