The Syndicate of Nova Dackians is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Solomon Lane with an iron fist, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, ritual sacrifices, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 3.32 billion Dackians 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, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Syndicate. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 31.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Dackian economy, worth 399 trillion Nova Golden Thingies a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 120,188 Nova Golden Thingies, with the richest citizens earning 7.2 times as much as the poorest.

Everything stops come summertime, acknowledgement of minority groups is usually a Trojan horse, going on a diet invalidates your passport, and freighter lifeboats have been replaced by state of the art marker buoys so divers can recover the cargo after they sink. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nova Dackians's national animal is the Nova Duck, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Raiderism.

Nova Dackians is ranked 41,516^th in the world and 2^nd in New Lacia for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 5,381.21 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
