It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 54%, and even higher for the wealthy. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Book Publishing.
Marijuana is legal in the privacy of your own home, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, and the government attempting to revitalize a gutted private sector. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is well under control. Dark Valley's national animal is the Praying Mantis, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Granite.
