The Democratic Republic of United Normal Ducks is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Joe Ducken with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.288 billion Duckies love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ducky Town. The average income tax rate is 77.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Ducky economy, worth 456 trillion Ducky Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Furniture Restoration, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 86,263 Ducky Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Children usually cry on their first day of school, increasing inclusiveness is a sign of the times, the green glow is a sign of clean energy, and many aides in Joe Ducken's office are known to be serial jaywalkers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. United Normal Ducks's national animal is the Normal Duck, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

United Normal Ducks is ranked 30,218^th in the world and 32^nd in Hell for Highest Poor Incomes, with 74,890.84 Standard Monetary Units.
