The Republic of Arhanistan is a colossal, genial nation, notable for its rum-swilling pirates, keen interest in outer space, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate population of 6.446 billion Arhanistanians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 98.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Arhanistanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,643 trillion Marbozzes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 255,041 Marbozzes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Crossbow bolts fill the skies if so much as a sparrow flies overhead, promising seven years of bad luck leads to seven years of community service, the nation is in perpetual campaign mode, and one can wake up in Arhanistan and have breakfast in Bigtopia. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Arhanistan's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Arhanistan is ranked 1,780^th in the world and 49^th in the South Pacific for Nicest Citizens, with 75.95 average smiles per day.
