The Republic of Its TV TIME is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 2.886 billion Darkners are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.9%.

The very strong TV World economy, worth 168 trillion points a year, is led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Gambling. Average income is 58,368 points, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 219,374 per year while the poor average 10,841, a ratio of 20.2 to 1.

The alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Its TV TIME's national animal is the Mr Tenna, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Its TV TIME is ranked 9,249^th in the world and 1^st in Dark World for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 6,743.03 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
