The Grand Duchy of 66 Ducks is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Grand Duchess Evita with an even hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, anti-smoking policies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 28.663 billion Ducks are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Environment, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Muchos Pavos. The average income tax rate is 93.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient 66 Ducksian economy, worth a remarkable 3,123 trillion quackers a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is mostly comprised of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 108,983 quackers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

TV coverage of music festivals consists mostly of backstage interviews, third world countries are rich in "I Love Muchos Pavos" t-shirts, the nation wears its high incidence of chromosomal diseases as a badge of pride, and cassocked priests and choirboys believe that what happens behind closed doors stays behind closed doors. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 66 Ducks's national animal is the duck, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Lifepool.

66 Ducks is ranked 4,217th in the world and 17th in Wysteria for Most Valuable International Artwork, with zero Bank.
