The Futurist Golden Dragon State of Arante is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Holy Leader with an even hand, and notable for its enslaved workforce, keen interest in outer space, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 5.193 billion Aranteans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arante City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 27.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Arantean economy, worth 987 trillion bitcoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 190,234 bitcoins, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,110,532 per year while the poor average 15,332, a ratio of 72.4 to 1.

Kindhearted Aranteans generously pay taxes for citizens of other countries, retail stores are known for creating their own oddly-similar holidays in the months preceding any major festivity, the numbers on the latest spending report are reaching stellar levels, and faceless corporations are expected to assume parental responsibility over millions of teenagers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Arante's national animal is the golden Dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Dragon Path of Eternal Wisdom.

Arante is ranked 310,393rd in the world and 434th in Federation Of Sovereign States for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -8.67 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
