The Federated Kingdoms of Arcaleio is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Hadrien Clément with an even hand, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, smutty television, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 1.262 billion Arcaleians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nestora. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Arcaleian economy, worth 218 trillion Arcaleio Pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 173,074 Arcaleio Pounds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 550,492 per year while the poor average 41,426, a ratio of 13.3 to 1.

Dangerous criminals are often 'accidentally' sent on one-way trips to Maxtopia, Arcaleian Imperial Faith has been named as Arcaleio's national religion, even the nation's brussel sprouts are delicious and nutritious, and email killed the radio star. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Arcaleio's national animal is the Member of Parliament, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Arcaleian Imperial Faith.

Arcaleio is ranked 17,161^st in the world and 171^st in the Pacific for Highest Average Incomes, with 173,074.69 Standard Monetary Units.
