The People's Republic of Arajia is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by James Baustein with an even hand, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, compulsory military service, and soft-spoken computers. The compassionate population of 6.678 billion Arajians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Avalon. The average income tax rate is 95.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Arajian economy, worth 939 trillion Yans a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 140,752 Yans, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians have seen a significant reduction in followers on their social media accounts, people are offered free trials to go to trial, elementary school children develop thousand-yard stares, and people believe that if you teach a man to fish he won't buy fish from you any more. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Arajia's national animal is the Meerkat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Arajia is ranked 318,210^th in the world and 401^st in The Communist Bloc for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 6,756.14 Standard Monetary Units.
