The Imperial Dominion of Arithei is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Lord Lanair with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, democratic, cheerful population of 44.134 billion Arithites enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small, liberal government is primarily concerned with Education, with Environment, Industry, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alqualondë. The average income tax rate is 86.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Aritheian economy, worth an astonishing 18,321 trillion Drachmas a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 415,129 Drachmas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Passwords to nuclear codes must now contain upper and lower case characters, criminal rehabilitation takes place in re-education centers, the combined alert sound of a nation simultaneously receiving a text message is a common cause of hearing damage, and no one is quite sure what many government officials look like. Crime is totally unknown. Arithei's national animal is the Lynx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Arithei is ranked 27,652^nd in the world and 84^th in NationStates for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 6,387.56 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
