The United Provinces of Darkmania is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Ädam Hüskam with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, rampant corporate plagiarism, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 17.745 billion Darkmanians 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Örkendrem. The average income tax rate is 90.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Darkmanian economy, worth a remarkable 2,153 trillion Darkmanian Daënks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 121,352 Darkmanian Daënks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Photos of picturesque coastal buildings are set against a backdrop of smokestacks and ship hulls, elementary school students are required to master Bach's Chaconne in D before graduation, Ädam Hüskam's family members carry literal get-out-of-jail-free cards, and it's been a banner year for local vexillology. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Darkmania's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Darkmanian Catholism.

Darkmania is ranked 154,530^th in the world and 15^th in Novapax for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 992.66 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
