The Federated Republic of Durnstaal is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Boyan Simic with a fair hand, and renowned for its triple-decker prams, compulsory military service, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 7.759 billion Durnians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Durnen. The average income tax rate is 46.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Durnstaalian economy, worth 725 trillion pecias a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 93,462 pecias, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one, Boyan Simic's exquisite office door is replaced monthly due to angry petitioners, the phrase 'spreading like wildfire' is no longer in the public lexicon, and indigenous tribal elders can be recognised by their designer watches and expensive suits. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Durnstaal's national animal is the wolf, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Durnstaal is ranked 33,265th in the world and 15th in Coalition of Crown Albatross for Most Stationary, with 1,310.854716608 days.
