The Republic of Daniel4 is a titanic, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, enslaved workforce, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, devout population of 14.371 billion Daniel4ians 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, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 49.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Daniel4ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,514 trillion pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 174,997 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

A cyber-war between file sharers and the music industry formats hard drives across the country, oil rigs in winter are heated by contained oil slick fires, baby dolls thrown in the trash are a leading cause of panic attacks, and the optimally efficient parking strategy for business commuters is referred to as the "traveling salesman problem". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Daniel4's national animal is the Raven, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Daniel4 is ranked 5,807^th in the world and 15^th in New Bilderberg Group for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 52,068.72 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
