The Dolphin Confederation of Lys Deks Rahry is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Jake Hughes with a fair hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, free-roaming dinosaurs, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 5.012 billion Rahryians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of dolphin bay. The average income tax rate is 90.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Rahryian economy, worth 620 trillion Souls a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 123,893 Souls, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The new Rahryian-made OS is buggier and more inconvenient than a horse-drawn carriage, digital novelty coins make for surprising vanguards of the revolution, an endless multinational bureaucracy connects the Red Bloc, and the bourgeoisie are asked nicely to hand over the means of production. Crime is totally unknown. Lys Deks Rahry's national animal is the Dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is the church of dolphins.

Lys Deks Rahry is ranked 216,754^th in the world and 202^nd in Karma for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -4.56 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
