The Democratic Republic of Democates is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Himanshu with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate population of 2.908 billion Democatesians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of उरई. The average income tax rate is 75.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Democatesian economy, worth 391 trillion Rupees a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 134,561 Rupees, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

It is mandatory to learn evolution in schools, Eckie-Ecola has declared that their soda poop is The Real Thing, remote-control hang-gliding scarecrows patrol the skies to keep songbirds from leaving the nation's borders, and stuttering trypanophobes are doomed never to marry. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Democates's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Humanity.

Democates is ranked 17,325^th in the world and 463^rd in the South Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,126.32 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
