The Archendom of Arvela is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Vela I with an even hand, and notable for its burgeoning Bloodhound population. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 28.462 billion Arvelans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The large, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arvant. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 32.7%.

The very strong Arvelan economy, worth a remarkable 1,205 trillion Rials a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Furniture Restoration, and Information Technology. Average income is 42,351 Rials, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 131,781 per year while the poor average 10,464, a ratio of 12.6 to 1.

Parents must choose their children's names from a government-mandated master list, Arvela has designated Arvant as its capital city, Vela I has just been declared ruler of Arvela in an international press conference, and Arvelaism has been named as Arvela's national religion. Crime is a problem. Arvela's national animal is the Bloodhound, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Arvelaism.

Arvela is ranked 244,711^th in the world and 2^nd in Grand Utopia for Highest Average Incomes, with 42,351.27 Standard Monetary Units.
