The Federal Commonwealth of Dicko is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Primarch Dicko with an iron fist, and notable for its closed borders, anti-smoking policies, and digital currency. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 17.496 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 8,577 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 490,271 Bitcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has little issue with allowing its citizens to languish in foreign jails, it's best to decline if Primarch Dicko offers to buy a round of drinks, the government snoops on private internet connections, and the government is more interested in identifying problems than fixing them. 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 288,632nd in the world and 6,304th in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 4.2 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
