The Fiefdom of Koyanskaya of Darkness is a huge, safe nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 652 million Koyanskaya of Darknessians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 23.5%.

The Koyanskaya of Darknessian economy, worth 27.4 trillion ryous a year, is led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 41,970 ryous, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Prison walls have had to be modified to keep parkour-trained criminals from escaping, victims of crime are viewed as less trustworthy than politicians, soldiers stream their classified military operations live for millions of fans, and politicians are forced to wear portable lie detectors at all times. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Koyanskaya of Darkness's national animal is the bird, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Koyanskaya of Darkness is ranked 181,621^st in the world and 1,780^th in Remembrance for Most Corrupt Governments, with 2.7 kickbacks per hour.
