The Most Serenely Grey Republic of Archenomia is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Council of Founders with an even hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, anti-smoking policies, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate population of 27.901 billion Archenomians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Archipolis. The average income tax rate is 49.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The enormous but underdeveloped Archenomian economy, worth a remarkable 1,441 trillion Aers a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 51,679 Aers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Archenomia Mental Asylum Party have recently won seats in parliament, multilingual concierges man empty inner city apartment blocks, The Council of Founders steals from the rich and gives to the needy, and politicians who vacation in East Lebatuck lose their jobs upon their return. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Archenomia's national animal is the mild-coloured snail, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Archenomia is ranked 283,513^th in the world and 340^th in Forest for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring -6.32 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
