The Populist Federation of Archannia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Tevslěnko Atryev with an iron fist, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, zero percent divorce rate, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 1.142 billion Hrvzajinians 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zagrad. The average income tax rate is 69.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Hrvzajin economy, worth 116 trillion nyvris a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 101,421 nyvris, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Third world countries are rich in "I Love Zagrad" t-shirts, homophobia is off the menu, gamblers often find their stakes burnt, and promising seven years of bad luck leads to seven years of community service. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Archannia's national animal is the seal, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Orthodox.

Archannia is ranked 291,589^th in the world and 250^th in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Most Politically Free, scoring 13 on the Diebold Election Inking Scale.
