The Federal Commonwealth of Dicko is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Primarch Dicko with an iron fist, and renowned for its complete lack of prisons, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 13.474 billion Dickoans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Citadel. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Dickoan economy, worth a remarkable 5,886 trillion Bitcoins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 436,849 Bitcoins, with the richest citizens earning 5.7 times as much as the poorest.

The comic book series 'Primarch Dicko and the Villainous Corporate Cronies' is a best-seller, military information leaks are **REDACTED** by **REDACTED** in **REDACTED**, unemployed accountants keep double-entry ledgers of their benefit claims, and visual acuity is worsening amongst teenagers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dicko's national animal is the Gryphon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Dicko is ranked 2,619^th in the world and 152^nd in The North Pacific for Healthiest Citizens, with 25.38 bananas ingested per day.
