The Republic of Galactic Arbitaner is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by President Jake Arthuria with an iron fist, and remarkable for its closed borders, avant-garde cinema, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 5.03 billion Lunarians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Atlas. The average income tax rate is 39.5%.

The powerhouse Lunarian economy, worth 471 trillion PaciBits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 93,795 PaciBits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.8 times as much as the poorest.

Oddly patriotic flash mobs spontaneously sing the national anthem, running away is an essential part of the elite forces' hand-to-hand training, government agents scour baking periodicals for subversive recipes, and when electric cars arrived nobody heard them coming. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Galactic Arbitaner's national animal is the terra bacterium, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Neo-Christianity.

Galactic Arbitaner is ranked 291,866th in the world and 26th in The Moon for Most Stationary, with 2.1069778182 days.
