The People's Republic of Armley is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Rachel Reeves MP with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, daily referendums, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 24.908 billion Armlonians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 44.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Armlonian economy, worth a remarkable 5,323 trillion Armley Pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 213,745 Armley Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Armlonian husbands are dead good at fathering kids, doctors who mutter "Oh my God" often lose their medical license, televisions are often seized to pay for overdue television license fees, and nobody is allowed to stop the local daycare from reading Nietzsche to pre-schoolers. Crime is totally unknown. Armley's national animal is the Kentucky Fried Chicken, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Armley is ranked 44,882^nd in the world and 97^th in United Kingdom for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 4,291.77 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
