The Imperial Principality of Arakhkhar is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Vicereine Sevana with an iron fist, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, triple-decker prams, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.73 billion Arakhkharis 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, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Novalira. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 93.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Arakhkhari economy, worth 938 trillion Dinars a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 163,729 Dinars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 486,101 per year while the poor average 43,262, a ratio of 11.2 to 1.

The nation frequently scolds its subject territories for staying up past bedtime, scientists take credit every time it rains in Badlands Frontier, parole hearings come with a complimentary ten-year extension, and the cruise missile launchers on the field hospital roof are purely deterrent in purpose. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Arakhkhar's national animal is the Veksilus, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Nisinulat Imperi.

Arakhkhar is ranked 69,015^th in the world and 8^th in Badlands Frontier for Highest Poor Incomes, with 43,262.93 Standard Monetary Units.
