The Queendom of Dom 17 is a colossal, safe nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 6.142 billion Dom 17ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 41.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Dom 17ian economy, worth 61.5 trillion kronor a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Trout Farming, Pizza Delivery, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 10,010 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dom 17's national animal is the elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Dom 17 is ranked 278,491^st in the world and 6,672^nd in the Rejected Realms for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -10.86 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
