The Holy Militant Tsardom of Aroltia is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Tsar Sergei I with an iron fist, and renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 13.523 billion Aroltians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Snezhnyygrad. The average income tax rate is 95.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Aroltian economy, worth a remarkable 3,561 trillion Arols a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 263,397 Arols, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 961,160 per year while the poor average 51,252, a ratio of 18.8 to 1.

Most citizens in Aroltia are abject pyrophobes after extremely graphic pamphlets were mailed nationwide by the government, Air Aroltia is rumored to receive more government funding than the Aroltian Air Force, professionals are ready to retire by the time they receive permission to use their credentials, and prison reforms have replaced communal luaus with communal loos. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aroltia's national animal is the Polar Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is the Aroltian Orthodox Church.

Aroltia is ranked 465^th in the world and 1^st in Montealba for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring 106,951.14 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
