The Harrowing Whispers of Apocalypse Sector is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Arldr with an iron fist, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, aversion to nipples, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 9.55 billion Prowlers 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Section 9. The average income tax rate is 49.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Prowler economy, worth 892 trillion Catalysts a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 93,439 Catalysts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Nations across the world are quick to praise Arldr's good looks and intellectual prowess, millions of simultaneously backfiring toilets have flooded Section 9 with effluent, to 'cut off family ties' is no longer just a phrase, and the diplomatic corps tends to open negotiations by insulting all the foreigners in the room. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Apocalypse Sector's national animal is the Arldr, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Xyn.

Apocalypse Sector is ranked 97,570th in the world and 1st in Vy Exia for Most Stationary, with 452.11031481588 days.
