The Community of Arraya is a titanic, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 20.529 billion Arrayans 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 minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry, Healthcare, and Education also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.5%.

The strong Arrayan economy, worth a remarkable 1,185 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Woodchip Exports, and Gambling. Average income is 57,752 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 372,221 per year while the poor average 3,620, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Voting is voluntary. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Arraya's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Arraya is ranked 45,998^th in the world and 1^st in Mississauga for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 5,079.21 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
