The People's Republic of Darsavia is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, avant-garde cinema, and infamous sell-swords. The compassionate population of 349 million Darsavians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Laureles. The average income tax rate is 68.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Darsavian economy, worth 21.5 trillion Lendiras a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 61,515 Lendiras, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Army doctors who come under attack defend themselves by using stethoscopes like nunchaku, artists are pillars of society, business meetings across the country are interrupted by the sound of squeaking whoopee-cushions, and board shorts have replaced board rooms. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Darsavia's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Darsavia is ranked 43,949^th in the world and 656^th in The Communist Bloc for Lowest Crime Rates, with 76.27 law-abiding acts per hour.
