The Armed Republic of Du Khan is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 680 million Du Khanians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Administration also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Environment are ignored. The average income tax rate is 59.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Du Khanian economy, worth 76.9 trillion Du Khans a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 113,047 Du Khans, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Ritual mummification is making a comeback, the military has gone fission for more funding, email killed the radio star, and the navy's new flotilla is gonna be a thrilla. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Du Khan's national animal is the Mountain Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Du Khan is ranked 46,942nd in the world and 18th in The Axis of Evil for Highest Average Incomes, with 113,047.98 Standard Monetary Units.
