The Kingdom of Darinians is a small, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working population of 45 million Darians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 45.3%.

The Dariniansian economy, worth 2.80 trillion Daris a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 62,332 Daris, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Ignorance is considered a politically desirable quality, there has been a series of riots between local cannibals and health food advocates, teenagers are told they're not thinking about sex enough, and families must live in a village for a century before they get any say in how it runs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Darinians's national animal is the Lion, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Darinians is ranked 17,757^th in the world and 24^th in Astoria for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,269.01 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
