The Kikkorian Colony of Darcy Richards is a titanic, orderly nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 16.211 billion Darcy Richardsians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 17.1%.

The strong Darcy Richardsian economy, worth 931 trillion Dollar Bills Y'alls a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Tourism. Average income is 57,491 Dollar Bills Y'alls, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 173,586 per year while the poor average 14,832, a ratio of 11.7 to 1.

The Darcy Richards Enquirer offers weekly cash prizes for 'most blasphemous song, story, or cartoon', all news sources are under strict government control, Pinkerton agents are called in to forcibly break up white collar strikes, and priceless Maxtopian artwork can often be found in executive bathrooms. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Darcy Richards's national animal is the Goose.

Darcy Richards is ranked 125,643rd in the world and 6,858th in Lazarus for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,612.44 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
