The Nuhaatyc Republic of Arutiise is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Mand'alor with an iron fist, and remarkable for its national health service, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 21.309 billion Mando'ade 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Keldabe. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Mando'adyc economy, worth an astonishing 14,295 trillion ÅⱯÅpaks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 670,846 ÅⱯÅpaks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation, government programs are less "written" and more "plagiarised", all mothers are allowed six months fully-paid maternity leave, and the nation is noticeably more cheerful on Tuesdays. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Arutiise's national animal is the Nuhaatyc, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Dar'manda.

Arutiise is ranked 494^th in the world and 1^st in The Atheist Empire for Most Popular Tourist Destinations, with 3,486.78 Tourists Per Hour.
