The Commonwealth of Arkerian is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by The Chancellor with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and smutty television. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 11.12 billion Arkerian Citizens enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.
The relatively small government prioritizes Education, with Social Policy, Healthcare, and Environment also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Metropolis. The average income tax rate is 19.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Arkerianian economy, worth a remarkable 2,522 trillion Pound Sterlings a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 226,842 Pound Sterlings, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.
Sullen teenagers in bright orange 'community payback' onesies can be seen picking litter at the roadside, many aides in The Chancellor's office are known to be serial jaywalkers, convicted criminals are given free limo rides to jail, and rude retail employees are now even ruder homeless panhandlers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Arkerian's national animal is the Owl, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Arkerian is ranked 143,797th in the world and 2,882nd in Balder for Most Stationary, with 186.4685612156 days.
