The Proletarian Republic of Darkwoke is a massive, genial nation, ruled by the Supreme Soviet with an even hand, and notable for its national health service, sprawling nuclear power plants, and compulsory gun ownership. The compassionate, cheerful population of 1.885 billion wokes are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of A Critique of Political Economy. The average income tax rate is 95.0%.

The frighteningly efficient woke economy, worth 267 trillion kroners a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 141,925 kroners, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The mob vote is a crucial electoral demographic, museum visitors often bring lemons and black lights, any body part that can be cut off a person is no longer considered to be their property, and the question "please would you...?" is usually laden with passive aggression. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Darkwoke's national animal is the white-throated dipper, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Pastafarianism.

Darkwoke is ranked 5,301^st in the world and 128^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 8,094.89 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
