The Fantasy World of The Dark Sun Campaign is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Kalak with an iron fist, and notable for its smutty television, frequent executions, and ban on automobiles. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 9.768 billion Dark Sun Campaignians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Environment, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tyr. The average income tax rate is 91.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Dark Sun Campaignian economy, worth a remarkable 1,817 trillion gold pieces a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, highly specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, Tourism, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 186,042 gold pieces, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's diplomatic missives are now delivered via sniper rifle, organ donation is compulsory, the nation is cleaning up after a national night of celebration left most people with headaches and dim memories (The Dark Sun Campaign has found 4 easter eggs), and billions of gold pieces are being blown on orbital weapons development. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The Dark Sun Campaign's national animal is the thri-kreen, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Preservers.

The Dark Sun Campaign is ranked 257,716^th in the world and 1^st in The Dark Sun Campaign for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -38.1 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
