The Nomadic Peoples of Darwinian Interruptus is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Johnny Gage with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 21.835 billion Darwinian Interruptusians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rampart General. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 3.8%.

The powerhouse Darwinian Interruptusian economy, worth a remarkable 2,146 trillion Bandaids a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 98,299 Bandaids, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 513,768 per year while the poor average 10,107, a ratio of 50.8 to 1.

The nation's train stations are widely considered to be the ugliest in Imperium of the Wolves, it is illegal to distribute Girl Guide Cookies without an advanced food hygiene diploma, the inside lane of every highway is for parked vehicles only, and rebuilding efforts for a recently destroyed cathedral aren't expected to be completed for another century. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Darwinian Interruptus's national animal is the Grim Reaper, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Darwinian Interruptus is ranked 268,275^th in the world and 6^th in Imperium of the Wolves for Highest Poor Incomes, with 10,107.07 Standard Monetary Units.
