The Confederacy of Delcovia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Mikey Escobar with an even hand, and notable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, sprawling nuclear power plants, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 31.774 billion Delcovians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, although Healthcare and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Media. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Delcovian economy, worth an astonishing 12,030 trillion deadprezzes a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Soda Sales, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is an amazing 378,632 deadprezzes, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,648,406 per year while the poor average 55,047, a ratio of 29.9 to 1.

Prolonged government investigations are a common revenge tactic among spurned significant others, officials pull all-nighters to check immigrants for potential links to terrorists, aeroplane cockpits no longer have altimeters or airspeed indicators, and Little League matches are often attended by riot police with water cannon... just in case. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, probably because of the absence of a police force. Delcovia's national animal is the platypus, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is No Established Church.

Delcovia is ranked 259,987^th in the world and 9,624^th in Balder for Highest Food Quality, scoring 7.19 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
