The Pirate's Republic of Archalit is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Sagaristio Bruscius with an even hand, and renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 14.63 billion Arkali enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Charkara. The average income tax rate is 91.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Archalitian economy, worth a remarkable 1,601 trillion NS Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 109,462 NS Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Recognizing the Archalitian flag qualifies you for citizenship, the police ransack more houses than criminals do, mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field, and people transfer their assets to bank accounts in Manamana before getting divorced. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Archalit's national animal is the Bleeding-Heart Pigeon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Piratism.

Archalit is ranked 317,919^th in the world and 459^th in The Communist Bloc for Rudest Citizens, with 7.85 insults per minute.
