The Republic of Darya is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 4.596 billion Daryans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, pro-business government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Spirituality, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kurwai. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.5%.

The very strong Daryan economy, worth 282 trillion takahs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Retail, Pizza Delivery, and Information Technology. Average income is 61,447 takahs, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 266,072 per year while the poor average 9,018, a ratio of 29.5 to 1.

A nation-wide cull of elephants is in effect, Leader has just been declared ruler of Darya in an international press conference, Darya has designated Kurwai as its capital city, and Zindism has been named as Darya's national religion. Crime is moderate. Darya's national animal is the elephant, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Zindism.

Darya is ranked 259,630^th in the world and 45^th in International Democratic Union for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 39.43 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
