The Free Land of Dankzig is a large, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, absence of drug laws, and compulsory gun ownership. The compassionate, democratic population of 124 million Dankzigers are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Welfare, although Education, Administration, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and Law & Order are ignored. The average income tax rate is 36.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Dankziger economy, worth 5.83 trillion greens a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 47,009 greens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Exam halls are littered with used needles and empty pill bottles, gun ownership is compulsory, pootling steam trains carry delighted tourists and frustrated businessmen from city to city at a snail's pace, and NPCs in MMORPGs regularly interrupt cutscenes with OOC reminders that they aren't real people. Crime is a problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Dankzig's national animal is the ganjalope, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Dankzig is ranked 187,742^nd in the world and 108^th in Canada for Highest Average Incomes, with 47,009.29 Standard Monetary Units.
