The Democratic Republic of DOLYKA is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Alemagne with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, complete lack of prisons, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.854 billion DOLYKAians 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 Education, Industry, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 69.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient DOLYKAian economy, worth 469 trillion DOLYKOINS a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 121,877 DOLYKOINS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is a clear-cut case of tyranny by majority, teenage girls worry that they'll be unpopular if their skirts aren't short enough, the masses are surrendering their civil liberties without complaint for the sake of shopping convenience, and the inside lane of every highway is for parked vehicles only. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. DOLYKA's national animal is the swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

DOLYKA is ranked 19,502nd in the world and 792nd in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 93 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
