The Republikstaat of Daneka is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Marko Drest with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, parental licensing program, and smutty television. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 4.938 billion Danekans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aßtha. The average income tax rate is 77.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Danekan economy, worth 886 trillion Almeria-Daneka bills a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 179,441 Almeria-Daneka bills, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.

The number of students attending university has reached a record high, the new 'Things We Stole From Other Countries' exhibition at the National Museum of Antiquities is a hit, the nation has a strict 'no marauding undead' law (Daneka has found 1 easter egg), and the recently unemployed can often be seen at the local homeless shelter. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Daneka's national animal is the Great Danekan Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Protestant-Catholicism.

Daneka is ranked 275,442^nd in the world and 163^rd in Eladria for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -7.72 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
