The People's Republic of Darakcha is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its enslaved workforce, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 16.017 billion Darakchans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hararerin. The average income tax rate is 90.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Darakchan economy, worth a remarkable 1,772 trillion slyisses a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Furniture Restoration, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 110,646 slyisses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Mining is the nation's most dangerous occupation, farmers have taken to hunting billionaires who encroach on their land, the tools of the trade for landmine clearance appear to be copious amounts of gasoline and a box of matches, and card players are calling the government's bluff on anti-gambling legislation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Darakcha's national animal is the partridge, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Violetism.

Darakcha is ranked 31,119^th in the world and 1^st in Crown of Victoria for Lowest Crime Rates, with 82.07 law-abiding acts per hour.
