The Dominator of Arkan Makuson is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Arkain Secondis with an iron fist, and remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, flagrant waste-dumping, and digital currency. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.812 billion Arkansons are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order and Industry also on the agenda, while Welfare and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arkanson City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Arkan Makusonian economy, worth 283 trillion Arkan Māsons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Gambling, and Information Technology. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 156,611 Arkan Māsons, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,100,558 per year while the poor average 7,583, a ratio of 145 to 1.

The government has the power to seize property at will, the dead are minced up and sold to people in burger form, citizens are prohibited from raising their voice above thirty decibels in commercial districts, and laughter while watching foreign diplomats disrobe tends to make diplomatic talks counterproductive. Crime is a problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Arkan Makuson's national animal is the Kan Crane, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Servism.

Arkan Makuson is ranked 94,030th in the world and 2nd in Aneriad for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 2,728.88 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
