You would be either in the key of F or D minor. Impossible to say which one without knowing the chord progression or the melody; does the Dm or the F feel more like "home"? You could modulate to any key you like, but you're be more likely to modulate to a "close" key. Since F or D minor have one flat, the close keys would be those with two flats (Bb or G minor) or no flats (C or A minor). Most likely, you'd go to the dominant key, which would be C or A minor (depending on whether your tonic key was F or D minor).
The key of D major is based off of the D major scale: D, E, F sharp, G, A, B, C sharp, D. Within the scale, the most important chords are D major (D, F sharp, A), E minor (E, G, B), F sharp minor (F sharp, A, C sharp), G major (G, B, D), A (A, C sharp, E), and B minor (B, D, F sharp). If you are feeling really crafty, you can add a seventh to some of the chords to give it a more interesting sound. If you are writing a song, using these chords will keep it in the key of D. If you are transposing a song, lower or raise the entire song the same number of steps until you are using mostly (if not all) the chords in the key of D.
