The People's Republic of Arggg is a very large, pleasant nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, lack of airports, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 264 million Commies are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 22.1%.

The Commie economy, worth 14.2 trillion arggggs a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is notable. Average income is 53,810 arggggs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 178,103 per year while the poor average 12,147, a ratio of 14.7 to 1.

A popular saying is "don't do the crime if you can't smash the lime(stone)", fifty years of pension funds can disappear in half a second, people are turning themselves into worm food, and movement-triggered sensors mean that for every door that closes another one opens. Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Arggg's national animal is the argggg.

Arggg is ranked 315,485^th in the world and 20^th in Raspberry Commune for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -9.38 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
