The Republic of Darmen is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by President Thomas Gwerder with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 31.427 billion Darmenis have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Scott City. The average income tax rate is 95.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Darmeni economy, worth a remarkable 6,161 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 196,058 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

Politicians tend to jump ship to whichever party is currently leading in the polls, murderers are immune to arrest while attending their victims' funerals, oilmen are in the business of greasing people's palms, and out-of-work actors say they can't complain. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Darmen's national animal is the German Shepherd, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Darmenian Christianity.

Darmen is ranked 172,452^nd in the world and 24^th in Rushmore for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 207.99 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
