The Holy Green Irish Empire of Dkwte is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Apo with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, ritual sacrifices, and triple-decker prams. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 19.119 billion Dkwteans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The tiny, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Derik. The average income tax rate is 3.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Dkwtean economy, worth a remarkable 4,128 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 215,935 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Broken suspension systems are giving auto repair shops plenty of business, all children's clothes come in only cream and off-white to prevent offense, recreational drug businesses are regularly pruned if they grow above the maximum legal size, and 13-year-old internet trolls are treated as a threat on par with terrorists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dkwte's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Catholic.

Dkwte is ranked 180,157th in the world and 58th in New Bilderberg Group for Highest Food Quality, scoring 13.27 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
