[Dagnia]

Are computers a thing in your nation?
Yes
What was the first computer in YN? When was it built?
The one that was on the first ship to land on the main habitable planet in our solar system was the first ever in our nation. The first computer developed by a Dagnian company was a handheld communication device.
What is the most popular operating system?
MankietOS is the most popular of all OSs. It was designed for standalone smartwatches and other very small wearables/implantables. The next most popular is Komórka, which is for handheld devices. Most other purposes from supercomputers to laptops, AparOS is the most popular. All can trace their roots back to the old Unix from a thousand years ago, and though many of the features and supported hardware are radically different, some of the internal structure remains the same. All are partially open source.
What operating system does your government use?
The federal government uses an OS named Luna, another open source OS with striking similarities to the old Unix. A government contractor does most of the work on it and it includes specialised proprietary database software as well as a proprietary security solution. Because its focus is on security, it is very slow to adopt new features, and is often many years behind consumer OSs.
Does your nation manufacture computers?
Yes. The design and engineering are done primarily in Dagnia. 80% of manufacturing of physical devices is done elsewhere.
If yes, what brands currently are involved in YN's computer industry?
Ślivka/Сьливка is the most popular electronics brand in Dagnia. They are a member of the AparOS foundation and the primary contributor as the OS powers most of their products. They produce the most wearables as well as portable computers and desktops. Edging them out on handhelds though is WileyFrog.
What are the most popular computer brands in YN?
Ślivka/Сьливка, WileyFrog, TriPlus, Pikselek, and Drojdka are common brands that either produce whole systems or components and are seen across the galaxy. TriPlus's claim to fame is that while they make few whole products, 30% of all electronics in the galaxy contain more than one component made by them.
