Dalrawduel is a medium-sized region, with a thriving community of 11 nations and only 6 World Assembly Members.

The region was founded by The Medieval Kingdom of Danton, a nation currently led by King Menledur, a.k.a. Matthew the Puppet Master. After many other nations began to be accumulated in the area, Menledur's father Uril wrote The Medieval Compact of Dalrawduel to bring further justice and order to the region. It first appointed certain duties and powers to the Founder and the WA Delegate, and also created a third political position, that of High Justice. The founder served as the legislative branch, the delegate as the executive, and the justice as the judicial. After affirming these positions, the document laid down a long list of laws concerning different aspects of the region.

On May 7, 2014, the Founder and WA Delegate (at that time The Holy and Archaic Republic of Nightvale Community) seized absolute power over the region, ejecting many nations and eliminating all democracy. This led to much dissent and anger towards the region, and many other nations left voluntarily. Though the two officials held dictatorial power, the region had fallen into steep decline, gradually fading and losing participation and influence. It is now under totalitarian control by the Founder alone, he having removed the delegate's powers. The region has gone to hell in a hand basket since then,

The region currently holds embassies with six others: Onett, Western Dalrawduel, The Penal Colony of Wenderkhan, Grissom, GHS Elysium, and Blasphemous Beach Bungalow. Western Dalrawduel was formed from a split off of the original region, and therefore retains extremely close ties to its counterpart. The Penal Colony of Wenderkhan, true to its name, is a province of Dalrawduel and is used to hold criminals in. It is also the location of regional hearings.

There is only one official holiday that is recognized region-wide. It is called Radical Day, which occurs on March 6, and commemorates the day when the Armed Republic of WarStates, who was at that time the World Assembly delegate, led a coup d'etat against the government and ejected Danton from the region. However, having retained its powers as founder, Danton successfully ejected and banned WarStates in return and restored order to the region.

In Dalrawduel, denizens enjoy their civil rights, although not too much, or too freely. Nations in the region are considered developing democracies, with some political freedoms afforded to denizens. The economy of the region is very strong, with a large number of very powerful trading powers. The median tax rate of the region is 47%, but is frequently higher for the wealthy. The economies of nations in the region tend to be weighted more towards the public sector, with on average only 48% of the economy comprising the private sector. Stoking commercial activity is a major priority for governments, accounting for an average of 8% of public expenditure.

Education is a priority for governments throughout Dalrawduel, with ample funding being provided and teachers enjoying a great deal of support. Crime is low: the region enjoys well-equipped and well-funded police forces, coupled with efficient but fair judicial systems. Denizens have very well-funded, well equipped defense forces. Public transport is a popular mode of transport in the region, receiving on average of 4% of total government budgets.

Throughout Dalrawduel, governments find themselves confused, with administration departments being so bloated that staff do not know what other staff are doing, with an average of over 9% of government budgets being devoted to Administration. Governments generally endow their healthcare departments with a large amount of funding, with an average of 6% of government budgets across the region being devoted to healthcare. Welfare in the region is minimal, with only a small amount of expenditure being devoted to spending on social security. Spirituality is a major priority of governments in the region, with a relatively high average of 4% of government budgets being devoted to Spirituality.

Social inequality is a major problem within Dalrawduel, although some effort has been made to correct the problem. Natural environments are quite bad, although some measures have been undertaken to ensure that the environment is protected.
