The Nature State of Ardchu is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Armus Drakonae with an iron fist, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, free-roaming dinosaurs, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 10.238 billion Ardchuans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arnok. The average income tax rate is 96.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Ardchuan economy, worth a remarkable 1,427 trillion Rais a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 139,455 Rais, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Door to door salespeople have given up because nobody is ever home, tourists soak their luggage in boiling water before unpacking, the number of eyes rolled per maths lesson is increasing exponentially, and juries deliberate more than magic 8-balls. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ardchu's national animal is the Armadillo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Naturaeism.

Ardchu is ranked 12,487^th in the world and 3^rd in sus is mildly sus my guy for Largest Information Technology Sector, scoring 28,562.47 on the Fann-Boi Productivity Index.
