The Free Land of Araxes is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 1.35 billion Araxesians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, with Healthcare, Welfare, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.6%.

The strong Araxesian economy, worth 58.7 trillion rubledollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, and Soda Sales. Average income is 43,482 rubledollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 280,247 per year while the poor average 2,725, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Araxes's national animal is the hawk, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Araxes is ranked 16,549^th in the world and 1^st in Tskhinvali for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 5,328.13 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
