Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Technocratic Confederation of Daztonia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Renolpa Jreley-an with an even hand, and notable for its vat-grown people, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 1.602 billion Daztonians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dazta Tmyagolg. The average income tax rate is 45.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Daztonian economy, worth 177 trillion Auzocs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 110,612 Auzocs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Contemporary art museums showcase the latest in centuries-old art, the rich and poor vomit into separate bags, teenagers performing appendectomies on their friends has become a popular schoolyard prank, and a degree in Renolpa Jreley-an Science with a Minor in Awesomeology starts many political careers. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Daztonia's national animal is the Falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Daztonian Faiths.

Daztonia is ranked 262,275^th in the world and 4,879^th in the South Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 42.18 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
