The Federation of Argentorum is a huge, safe nation, notable for its smutty television, ban on automobiles, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 468 million Argentorumians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Buenos Ayres. The average income tax rate is 24.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Argentorumian economy, worth 51.9 trillion Pesos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 110,964 Pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

The Smalltopian embassy doubles as an electoral campaign headquarters, on graduation day the hats thrown in the air fly high enough to stun passing pigeons, grade school teachers mark homework with red "CITATION NEEDED" stamps, and the government is hoping that medical aid will speak louder than human rights abuses. Crime is totally unknown. Argentorum's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Argentorum is ranked 178,474th in the world and 232nd in Commonwealth of Liberty for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 51.35 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
