The Colony of Arginesia is a titanic, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 17.316 billion Arginesians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small, liberal government prioritizes Spirituality, with Defense, Welfare, and Education also on the agenda, while Environment and Industry aren't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 9.2%.

The Arginesian economy, worth 762 trillion silver lire a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 44,046 silver lire, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Arginesia's national animal is the silver shearwater, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Arginesia is ranked 99,045^th in the world and 1^st in Silvonia for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 44.28 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
