The Empire of Antarticarian Empire is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, parental licensing program, and suspicion of poets. The hard-working, democratic population of 376 million Antarticarians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Romulus. The average income tax rate is 18.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Antarticarian Empirean economy, worth 24.8 trillion Mints a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Information Technology. Average income is 65,893 Mints, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Leader's new android secretary is the latest media darling, Leader's recent "I have a dream that we will fight them by raking muck on the beaches" speech seems a little derivative to many, the government makes bereaved siblings into bereaved orphans, and convicted criminals are given free limo rides to jail. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Antarticarian Empire's national animal is the Penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Antarticarian Empire is ranked 97,518^th in the world and 26^th in Ensio for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 3,157.17 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
