The District of Delaino is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Liard with an iron fist, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, absence of drug laws, and suspicion of poets. The hard-working, cynical population of 41.772 billion Delainoans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. The average income tax rate is 33.8%.

The strong Delainoan economy, worth a remarkable 2,539 trillion aurums a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 60,784 aurums, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Schoolchildren have twice-weekly sex education classes, soldiers must key in their passwords every time they want to reload their weapons, hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, and Liard is convinced that other nations can simply be "junked" (Delaino has found 3 easter eggs). Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Delaino's national animal is the bovina, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Delaino is ranked 98,023^rd in the world and 5^th in Dog Lake for Most Corrupt Governments, with 13.54 kickbacks per hour.
