The United Socialist States of Daronk-Bhania is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and suspicion of poets. The cynical population of 7.508 billion Daronk-Bhanians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded, well-organized government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 81.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Daronk-Bhanian economy, worth 224 trillion cookies a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Soda Sales, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is 29,886 cookies, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Conspiracy theorists allege that the government is spying on them through their carbon monoxide detectors, government fact-checkers use surprising amounts of high explosive, it's believed that women's brains will overheat if they think for themselves, and concussed snekball players cannot remember their lineup position. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Daronk-Bhania's national animal is the snek, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Daronk-Bhania is ranked 179,984^th in the world and 7,379^th in Balder for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 690.75 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
