The Spirited Nationsfolk of Artoznik is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Azo with a fair hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.452 billion Artozi enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yephoen. The average income tax rate is 70.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Artozi economy, worth 515 trillion Kortozzes a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 94,548 Kortozzes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

When people ask what the difference is between politicians and lawyers they are referred to document c15(iv) section 14.1 subsection 3.2 of the Jan 2015 political category definition guidance codes, business meetings across the country are interrupted by the sound of squeaking whoopee-cushions, school plays were recently banned due to concerns of child endangerment, and Azo lives life on the open road - complete with groupies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Artoznik's national animal is the Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Artozi Folklore.

Artoznik is ranked 6,980^th in the world and 1^st in Arctica for Least Corrupt Governments, with 94.7 percentage of bribes refused.
