The Socialist Monarchy of Danobia is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Queen Annie I with an even hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, national health service, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate population of 4.557 billion Danobians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Misrata. The average income tax rate is 81.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Danobian economy, worth 330 trillion Danobian Francs 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 led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism. Average income is 72,592 Danobian Francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Adverts proclaim it has to be healthy if the Mornay uses hand-grated Gallopavian Gruyère, works of historical fiction contain a surprising lack of historical figures, people boast about their low income on their dating profiles, and Queen Annie I's media campaigns take a hiatus around exam week. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Danobia's national animal is the Dragonfly, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Pastafarianism.

Danobia is ranked 269,321^st in the world and 254^th in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -9.65 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
