The Soviet Republic of Armeattla is a titanic, socially progressive nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, ban on automobiles, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 12.3 billion Armeats are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 95.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Armeat economy, worth a remarkable 1,767 trillion Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 143,678 Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Many friends and relatives of Leader have been given ambassador jobs in tropical island nations, high school band practice is often crashed by technicolor-clad ravers, new pests have been imported into Armeattla, and the highest sporting award is the Grail of Tears. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Armeattla's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Socialist Secularism.

Armeattla is ranked 5,506^th in the world and 128^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Developed, scoring 94.08 on the Human Development Index.
