The Commonwealth of Indochinese Districts is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, free-roaming dinosaurs, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 281 million Indochinese are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The medium-sized, pro-business government prioritizes Industry, with Administration, Education, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 25.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Indochinese economy, worth 23.8 trillion Indochinese Dong a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is 84,620 Indochinese Dong, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

The police force is rumoured to be made up of evil shadows with no souls, new pilots are regularly reminded that they are more expendable than their planes, disaster relief budgets are growing like wildfire, and female newsreaders distract the nation by breastfeeding during broadcast. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Indochinese Districts's national animal is the Indochinese Leopard, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Indochinese Districts is ranked 189,121^st in the world and 131^st in Philosophers for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 50 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
