The Rogue Nation of Cold Darkness is a massive, pleasant nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-working, democratic population of 2.488 billion Cold Darknessians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The tiny, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 8.8%.

The strong Cold Darknessian economy, worth 120 trillion francs a year, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Woodchip Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 48,320 francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

It's rare to find an unchewed pencil, organ donation is compulsory, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Cold Darkness's national animal is the falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Cold Darkness is ranked 119,257^th in the world and 1^st in Cold lake for Highest Drug Use, scoring 140.89 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
