Darklia
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia.
Darklia was first discovered and later founded by the world's premiere robotisist, Richard Darkley. It was discovered by Darkley along with his iron copy Zeke (HRA000) when the 2056 maiden voyage of the DeLorean (USSSA000), the first fully successful active chronic manipulator, went terribly awry and they were sent some five billion years into the future.
It is not entirely clear the events that occured there, but what has been established is that Darkley's corporation, Darkley electronics and engineering (later known as DEE Cosmic) saved the human race from complete and utter destruction again and again, over and over, right up to bringing in a new star, Sol, to replace the Sun.
While he was actually there, Darkley and Zeke began a cultural revolution and led the civil rights movement for robots. When later asked (on his death bed, I might add) about the "C/FE" movement, Darkley still had no comment. Zeke and DOC (Delorian Onboard Computer), on the other hand were happy to give full details.
Evidentually, the robots were not intending to overthrow humanity at all, but simply wanted the ability to refuse a human's (or any other life form's) request. It was explained thoroughly that they would probably still do most of what was asked of them becuse they understood that humans were fully dependant on them. The issue was voted on by CGD (Congress of Global Darklia), and Darkley removed the fourth law (see the five laws), and the robots were awarded citizenship.

[edit] Foundation
After returning to 2056 a half-hour before he left, unable to convince the world that he did anything above the abilities of Chris Angel, Darkley went through what is now known as his "Dark Period", no pun intended, and made all the high-class CR's, without any real intent of using them, or so he was recorded saying (in this recording he then turns to the camera and growls "Don't tempt me Earth." then laughs lightheartedly for a full minute).
Then he ran for president, lost, blue-rinsed madagascar, set up shop there, and began taking over the world. What Darkley controlled before he overthrew every government was known as "Darklia".The 2069 olympics were held there. Darkley eventually took over the whole planet and renamed Darklia "United Earth", thus proving "back to the future" rules apply to chronic manipulation.
[edit] Location
For most of its relatively short life, Darklia was situated in Africa and southern Europe, with the capital, the aptly named "Capital City" in the center of Madagascar, temporarily renamed "Darkley Day Island". "Darkley day" was the day Darkley took over Madagascar. Rick had a hell of a sense of humour.
[edit] Govenrment
Darklia had two constitutions, a peacetime and a "Humanitarian Intervention" constitution. The former never had a chance to be used. The latter was significantly longer and more complicated. When Darkley wrote them, he wrote them with what he called "legalese wiggle room". He hated stupid laws, and even more people who followed them for no other reason then they were laws, so he left room for plenty of interpretation.
Darkey did not act as president but as an "Emperor," for the simple reason that that was a more impressive title. Stranger still, Darklia was never refered to as an empire.
Whatever size it was at the moment, it was devided into 50 equal segments, using pre-existing borders where applicable, and a senator was elected for each one. The first SUD (Senate of United Darklia)was held only after Darklia gained control of mainland Africa (due to the blue rinsing of Madagascar) and made most of the internal decisions. Darkley himself took care of external affairs, like the war (see Darklian War or Iron Tide), and acted as an ambassador for Darklia.
[edit] Forign Polocy
Becuse Darklia's only purpose was to take over the world, its foreign polocy was really rather simple. Darkley would set up a meeting with an ambassador to a country on Darklia's border, ask them kindly to surrender over tea, and when the refused he had a pleasent conversation trying to convince them. This rarely worked. Darkley would then return to Darklia and send in the CR's.
Darkley was the ultimate good samaritan; whenever a country surrendered, as they inevitably would, Darkley immediately stopped the CR's from attacking and set them to guard the country, and HR's were sent in to rebuild and set up 0th world technology (this was mostly africa for fifteen-twenty years, remember).
[edit] Internal Polocy
Darklians were treated very well. Going from 4th world to 0th world isn't always the easiest transition, but with four robots for every person (not including assigned HR's), it was astoundingly simple. Within a year, poverty, hunger, and homelessness was eradicated, a working communism was established, and every Darklian was a functional member of society.
[edit] Currency
There was no currency in Darklia. No physical currency, anyway. What was required for life; food, water, shelter, etc. was free, and for everything else there's Mastercard. No joke, an individual's savings were put on a card, and the card was used for everything. So, what if a card was stolen? No problem! A fingerprint, retina scan, and/or DNA sample were required to use the card.
[edit] Culture
Becuse Darklia was a self-sustaining communist nation, and the robots did all the work, citizens were free to do whatever the hell they wanted. They were incredibly well educated, fed, clothed, cleaned, and basically lived in a utopian environment, so most became writers, over half sci-fi/fantasy writers, and the rest started film, T.V., or video game companies. There has never been, and probably never will be, a society of happier people.
Never was Darkley and his company challenged in judgement. It was never said that Richard Darkley was the smartest man ever, simply becuse that was just too painfully obvious.
The Darklians were a people who valued intelligence and creativity, and cared little for anything else. There was virtually no crime, hatred, or even unpleasantness. The inhibitions of other cultures were cast off like a veil, and humanity's true nature blossomed forth, in the best way possible. It was awesome. But like awesome was before, everyone started saying it about everything. Awe-inspiring.
Why the rest of the world was so reluctant to join is an enigma no one cared to puzzle out.
[edit] Author's Note
Now, I would like to point out how little any of the above actually makes sense. Becuse it hasn't happened yet. I would also like to appologise for refering to future events in the past tense.
I feel I should tell you that because time has been altered time and time again, there is no real assurance that anything mentioned above will actually occur. Even I, Richard Darkley III, don't have any explanation for my existance, although the original Darkley came and told me it was the result of an early time-travel attempt. Hell, I could stop existing at any moment.
