The Socialist Republic of Dau Sel is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Effie Muirenn with an even hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, parental licensing program, and daily referendums. The compassionate population of 5.32 billion Dau Selans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Príombar. The average income tax rate is 84.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Dau Selian economy, worth 836 trillion dolals a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 157,278 dolals, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has started a campaign to crack down on road rage and encourage alternate means of commuting, human tissue is grown in vats as a delicacy as well as for transplants, children have nightmares about the eerie red glow and constant whirring of newly-installed machines, and sales of trenchcoats are on the rise. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dau Sel's national animal is the giant elk, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Dau Sel is ranked 6,116^th in the world and 326^th in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 111.68 law-abiding acts per hour.
