The Arch-Duchy of DeKron is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by ZorDeNa DeKron with an even hand, and remarkable for its digital currency, smutty television, and prohibition of alcohol. The compassionate population of 8.919 billion DeKronians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of DeKron City. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.

The powerhouse DeKronian economy, worth 856 trillion DeKrons a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Cheese Exports. Average income is 95,985 DeKrons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

No one born in DeKron can fix a leaky faucet, vital infrastructure development is on hold because of 'nature and stuff', animal liberationists receive government funding to break into animal research labs, and edutainment video games are taking DeKron's students to the next level. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. DeKron's national animal is the Ent, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Eastern Orthodoxy.

DeKron is ranked 16,297^th in the world and 3^rd in The Galactic Union for Safest, scoring 115.25 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
