The Second Republic of Daneka is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Fischer Lang with an iron fist, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, triple-decker prams, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 1.15 billion Danekans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aßtha. The average income tax rate is 62.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Danekan economy, worth 109 trillion Concord-Daneka Bills a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 95,172 Concord-Daneka Bills, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The act of reporting blasphemy is known as 'Orthodoxxing', kids building model rockets in their backyard are grounded by Space Agency Rangers, armed police are cracking down on untaxed collectable-card-trading in local junior schools, and citizens are forced to donate blood once every three months. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Daneka's national animal is the Great Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Daneka is ranked 109,658^th in the world and 359^th in Concord for Safest, scoring 80.91 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
