The Socialist Federation of Arkuta is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Ivan Kuznetsov with an even hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, daily referendums, and compulsory military service. The compassionate population of 2.93 billion Arkutans 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 prioritizes Administration, with Education, Law & Order, and Defense also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Voldestok. The average income tax rate is 67.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Arkutan economy, worth 206 trillion kets a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 70,274 kets, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Optometrists will see citizens in seconds but health inspectors won't be sighted for years, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, jail house rock has been replaced with jail house golden oldies, and criminals and college students are taking an interest in the government's new weed-killing program. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Arkuta's national animal is the Gyrfalcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Arkuta is ranked 304,673^rd in the world and 13^th in Bethsaida for Rudest Citizens, with 9.26 insults per minute.
