The Federal Republic of Darbland is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by the President with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, ubiquitous missile silos, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.131 billion Darblandians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Darbland City. The average income tax rate is 50.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Darblandian economy, worth 352 trillion Euros a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 165,209 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Practising saying 'how now brown cow' is an essential part of holiday planning, builders across Darbland are blocked up with orders for new public loos, contestants on Darbland's Got Talent are screened by the government to make sure that they actually have talent, and families returning from international vacations are unable to get their children back into the country. Crime is totally unknown. Darbland's national animal is the Keir Starmer, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Secularism.

Darbland is ranked 40,871^st in the world and 1,386^th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 77.48 law-abiding acts per hour.
