The Matriarchy of Darwins Evolution is a tiny, safe nation, remarkable for its ban on automobiles, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 18 million Darwins Evolutionians 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.

The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 66.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The struggling Darwins Evolutionian economy, worth 273 billion fonces a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Arms Manufacturing, Soda Sales, Cheese Exports, and Pizza Delivery. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 15,162 fonces, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government spending has hit an all-time low, the nation's only university is the School of Hard Knocks, board shorts have replaced board rooms, and the military has quashed a recent coup attempt. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Darwins Evolution's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Darwins Evolution is ranked 325,585th in the world and 213th in Karma for Most Developed, scoring 43.64 on the Human Development Index.
