The Empire of Ever dark is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its triple-decker prams, rampant corporate plagiarism, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 12.637 billion Drows are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Administration, Industry, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Social Policy and Welfare receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 89.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Ever darkish economy, worth a remarkable 3,838 trillion Nights 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, 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 303,781 Nights, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,239,205 per year while the poor average 49,370, a ratio of 25.1 to 1.

Citizens rise at daybreak every day for mandatory exercise, lobster tastes best when it is red, human sacrifice to the metaphorical altar of Mammon ensures national prosperity, and international collectors know that a grease-stain on a work of art probably means it's passed through Ever dark. Crime is all-pervasive, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Ever dark's national animal is the Human, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Ever dark is ranked 346,674th in the world and 4,958th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -37.22 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
