The Democratic Republic of Donbask is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, ubiquitous missile silos, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed population of 222 million Doneskians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Education, Administration, and Healthcare are also considered important, while International Aid receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 30.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Donbaskian economy, worth 10.3 trillion rubles 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, Gambling, and Retail. 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 46,596 rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The tragedy of the commons is being tested nationwide but everyone says it's somebody else's problem, bombs are permitted on planes for the 'security of the passengers', tourists are denied entry because of a distant relative married to a Lilliputian, and the government supplies ragtag bands of resistance fighters in exchange for vague promises of future payment. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Donbask's national animal is the sheep, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Donbask is ranked 102,130^th in the world and 132^nd in KAISERREICH for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,041.05 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
