The Federal Republic of Arcticnight is a mid-sized, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 80 million Arcticnightians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Spirituality, although Welfare, Law & Order, and Education are also considered important, while Environment and Industry are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.9%.

The strong Arcticnightian economy, worth 3.60 trillion Arcticnightian dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 44,982 Arcticnightian dollars, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.

Harry Potter books are banned, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation, and state-run museums boast about their anti-Arcticnightian art collections. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Arcticnight's national animal is the Goldfish, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Arcticnight is ranked 128,200^th in the world and 3^rd in Alliance of Sovereign Nations for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 40,079.5 Standard Monetary Units.
