The Ascended Dominion of Dark_Warchief is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Dark_Warchief with an iron fist, and remarkable for its aversion to nipples, complete lack of prisons, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 27.198 billion Darkians are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.

The tiny, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Darkopolis. The average income tax rate is 3.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Darkian economy, worth a remarkable 9,691 trillion Iridium Coins 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 large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. 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 an amazing 356,320 Iridium Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Kids' party bags often contain candy and e-cigarettes, foreign governments are looking into weaponizing the infamous Darkian bee, pocket calculators are seen as status symbols for the ostentatiously wealthy, and highly paid government contractors are found coughing up furballs in alleyways. Crime is totally unknown. Dark_Warchief's national animal is the Dragon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Draco-Ascensionism.

Dark_Warchief is ranked 289,692nd in the world and 6,327th in The North Pacific for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -29.53 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
