The Unforgiving Cold of Arctic Lands is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Elizaveta Dubravina with an even hand, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, smutty television, and vat-grown people. The compassionate population of 7.249 billion Arctisans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moscow. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Arctisian economy, worth a remarkable 1,840 trillion work-hours 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 Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 253,848 work-hours, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Old people living in plastic bubbles complain about a new type of social isolation, starving citizens are offered nuclear pasta, Big Brother is still watching even when your big brother is dead, and no one questions why the chicken crossed the road anymore. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Arctic Lands's national animal is the Double-headed Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is incorrect beliefs.

Arctic Lands is ranked 255,173^rd in the world and 1,880^th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -6.88 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
