The Republic of Donsalia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Mary Saromet with a fair hand, and renowned for its smutty television, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 4.082 billion Donsalians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Samdita. The average income tax rate is 90.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Donsalian economy, worth 629 trillion Parans a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 154,264 Parans, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The question "please would you...?" is usually laden with passive aggression, religious education is a new government priority, creating dance remixes is the newest form of conspicuous consumption, and protestors are soaking piles of Parans in blood to make a point about government incomes. Crime is totally unknown. Donsalia's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Donsalia is ranked 5,387^th in the world and 306^th in Lazarus for Safest, scoring 129.84 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
