The Extra Visible Moon of The Wandering Dark is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Black Coat Lionhardt with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service and suspicion of poets. The cynical population of 3.987 billion Wandering Darkians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Law & Order, and Welfare also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Midnight. The average income tax rate is 26.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Wandering Darkian economy, worth 139 trillion Inkmetals a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Tourism, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 34,880 Inkmetals, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are regularly found digging for treasure in their gardens, suppression of pro-democracy protests is a daily occurrence, Black Coat Lionhardt has been self-declared as the Most Supreme Magnificent Overlord of Everything You Ever Saw, and The Wandering Dark has designated Midnight as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Wandering Dark's national animal is the Dark-Coat Lynx.

The Wandering Dark is ranked 141,730^th in the world and 196^th in Karma for Lowest Crime Rates, with 61.71 law-abiding acts per hour.
