The Republic of Demyansky District is a huge, genial nation, notable for its prohibition of alcohol, keen interest in outer space, and compulsory gun ownership. The compassionate population of 516 million Demyansky Districtians are prohibited from doing almost everything but make sure no one in government gets away with anything either.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 45.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Demyansky Districtian economy, worth 36.9 trillion Ducats a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 71,425 Ducats, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Welfare recipients are milking the government for all they've got, the nation is committed to nuclear rearmament, over a third of the seats in sports stadiums have been removed to make room for female-only commodes, and local mafias have a tough time disposing of dead snitches without catching the attention of recycling authorities. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Demyansky District's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Demyansky District is ranked 105,320^th in the world and 756^th in Novaya Zemlya for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 817.21 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
