The Republic of Arvtoska is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Prime Minister Alexandrie with a fair hand, and notable for its digital currency, restrictive gun laws, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 2.927 billion Arvtoskans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The tiny, corrupt, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dovensia City. The average income tax rate is 4.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Arvtoskan economy, worth 557 trillion Arvyts a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 190,540 Arvyts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The government finds the idea of having an army to be rather distasteful, the jackhammer is considered a tool of artistic criticism, underage drinkers are dragged through the streets and put in the stocks, and truncheon-mounted cameras record the beating of criminals in dynamic HD detail. Crime is relatively low. Arvtoska's national animal is the Dove, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Arvtoska is ranked 94,564th in the world and 33rd in Ensio for Safest, scoring 85.48 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
