The Dictatorship of The League Of Argos is a colossal, safe nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 5.096 billion Argosians 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Acre. The average income tax rate is 61.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient League Of Argosian economy, worth 245 trillion marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Retail, and Gambling. Average income is 48,262 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are regularly arrested in queues for 'loitering', no-one can foil the ambitions of Big Aluminium, politicians look weirdly alike, and children are often punished for the sins of the fathers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The League Of Argos's national animal is the cobra, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

The League Of Argos is ranked 89,668^th in the world and 10^th in Byzantine Christendom for Lowest Crime Rates, with 67.23 law-abiding acts per hour.
