The Federation of The Daphomirian Ambassador is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, unlimited-speed roads, and compulsory military service. The hard-working, democratic population of 224 million Daphomirians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.
The tiny, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.5%.
The very strong Daphomirian economy, worth 13.3 trillion luchiens a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Information Technology, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 59,301 luchiens, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 189,302 per year while the poor average 14,119, a ratio of 13.4 to 1.
The bonfire of the old paper records can be seen for miles around The Daphomirian Ambassador City, blood donations have been banned because of the risk of eternal unrest, small children are learning a lot of new words from a teacher with Tourette Syndrome, and immigrants are required to salute the flag five times a day. Crime is moderate. The Daphomirian Ambassador's national animal is the golden lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
The Daphomirian Ambassador is ranked 47,245th in the world and 2nd in RAAI for Safest, scoring 103.97 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
