The People's Republic of Aryax is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Stanislav Tyrankov with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, prohibition of alcohol, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 9.85 billion Aryaxians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arkanoviverna. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Aryaxian economy, worth a remarkable 3,577 trillion units a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 363,182 units, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are encouraged to report friends, family members or co-workers who seem depressed to the government for "counselling", bowling teams spend more time looking at their phones than the pins, truancy is as easy as clicking a camera icon, and clowns are being rounded up and admitted to mental institutions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aryax's national animal is the orca, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Aryax is ranked 3,321^st in the world and 64^th in 10000 Islands for Safest, scoring 137.81 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
