The Most Serene Republic of Delnish is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Forge Johnson with a fair hand, and notable for its daily referendums, sprawling nuclear power plants, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.474 billion Delnishians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kiln. The average income tax rate is 91.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Delnishian economy, worth 602 trillion Schmeckels a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 134,587 Schmeckels, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military equipment is being auctioned off to extend comatose centenarians' lives, the media seems excessively interested in what Forge Johnson is wearing this season, any secret that gets off someone's chest is promptly replaced, and the regional delicacy of chocolate bombes is deadlier than an unexploded bomb. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Delnish's national animal is the Green-Haired Lizard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Delnish is ranked 287,715^th in the world and 325^th in Conch Kingdom for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -18.38 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
