The Chocolate Loving Paradise of Darkesia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Questionable Lady Darkesia with an even hand, and renowned for its smutty television, compulsory military service, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed population of 41.636 billion Darkesians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal government prioritizes Education, although Defense, Environment, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fortress Cacao. The average income tax rate is 50.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Darkesian economy, worth a remarkable 6,987 trillion chocolate coin ®s a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 167,814 chocolate coin ®s, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It's all quiet on the western front, there's more than one way to skin a diplomat, asking 'does my bum look big in this?' leads to 30 hours of self-esteem classes, and Information Technology facilities are being turned into chocolate bunny™ habitats. Crime is totally unknown. Darkesia's national animal is the chocolate bunny™, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Chocolatology.

Darkesia is ranked 65,452nd in the world and 1,067th in the West Pacific for Most Income Equality, scoring 53.48 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
