The Socialist Democrats of Deman is a huge, safe nation, ruled by Dmitri Ankeslovich with an even hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, keen interest in outer space, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 884 million Demanians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Andermele. The average income tax rate is 77.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Demanian economy, worth 103 trillion Florins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 117,243 Florins, with the richest citizens earning 5.3 times as much as the poorest.

New government leaflets tell coeliac children to eat more crisps, the government has an entire department dedicated to staring at microscopes and writing down letters, judicial robes are the country's hottest fashion trend, and unemployed accountants keep double-entry ledgers of their benefit claims. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Deman's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Deman is ranked 184,450^th in the world and 1,785^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Income Equality, scoring 18.89 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
