The Chocolate Loving Paradise of Darkesia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Questionable Lady Darkesia with an even hand, and renowned for its smutty television, free-roaming dinosaurs, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 40.554 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, with Defense, Environment, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fortress Cacao. The average income tax rate is 43.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Darkesian economy, worth a remarkable 6,841 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 reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 168,694 chocolate coin ®s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

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 4,804th in the world and 80th in the West Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 15,371.39 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
