The Federal Dictatorship of Archaeos is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Dictator Claudianus with an even hand, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, frequent executions, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate population of 1.314 billion Archaeosias have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Primus Aquila. The average income tax rate is 40.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Archaeosia economy, worth 150 trillion Imperial Golds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 114,157 Imperial Golds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Dictator Claudianus claims to be the epitome of family values, engineers ask liberal arts majors "Do you want fries with that?", economists have been named Invertebrates of the Year, and nuclear physics is the most popular course at university. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Archaeos's national animal is the Magna Aquilae, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Archaeos is ranked 94,006^th in the world and 1^st in The Grande Imperium for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 2,799.42 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
