The Federal Commonwealth of Dicko is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Primarch Dicko with an iron fist, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, ban on automobiles, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 17.565 billion Dickoans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Citadel. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Dickoan economy, worth a remarkable 8,625 trillion Bitcoins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 491,035 Bitcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bad punctuation has come to a full stop, Dickoan watches are often the only thing to survive a disaster intact, Dickoans are unrivalled in obstacle courses, and crowded passenger trains are near-silent save for the soft tap of fingers on touchscreens. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dicko's national animal is the Gryphon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Dicko is ranked 24^th in the world and 1^st in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 2,087.87 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
