The Dark Forest of Javan Tribes is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by The Dark Forest with an even hand, and renowned for its smutty television, suspicion of poets, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 5.848 billion Javanese are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 2.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Javanese economy, worth a remarkable 1,452 trillion Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Average income is an amazing 248,338 Credits, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,278,624 per year while the poor average 2,846, a ratio of 800 to 1.

Signatures have been replaced with illegible scribbles, minstrels carrying coconut shells provide sound effects wherever their nobles wander, charity workers were first up against the wall when the time came, and the automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Javan Tribes's national animal is the Lynx, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Voracious Human Nature.

Javan Tribes is ranked 1,019th in the world and 1st in Hyperbolic Time Chamber for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 243,371.68 Standard Monetary Units.
