The Great State of Dzuk is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Rowan with an iron fist, and renowned for its vat-grown people, compulsory military service, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 2.018 billion Dzukians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rownas. The average income tax rate is 93.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Dzukian economy, worth 292 trillion Karūnąs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 144,724 Karūnąs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It turns out that you actually can put a price on intangible cultural heritage, the sound of wooden legs echo throughout Dzuk after the recent introduction of the Foot Tax, modern warfare's call of duty isn't popular with gamers these days, and at least 1% of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs budget goes to Rowan's wardrobe. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dzuk's national animal is the Sphinx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

Dzuk is ranked 262,473^rd in the world and 1,298^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 42.18 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
