The Allied States of DuckCounty is a huge, efficient nation, ruled by BrokeDuck with an even hand, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, devout population of 885 million Ducks have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ooftown. The average income tax rate is 67.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Duck Countyian economy, worth 85.7 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 96,794 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Soldiers on first dates introduce themselves only by their ranks and serial numbers, BrokeDuck has just been declared ruler of DuckCounty in an international press conference, government ministers have eclectic tastes in curtains, and farmers have taken to hunting billionaires who encroach on their land. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. DuckCounty's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

DuckCounty is ranked 230,768th in the world and 3,749th in the South Pacific for Most Secular, with 14.51 Atheism Rate.
