The Round Meal of Arbonium is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Davis Henton with an even hand, and renowned for its feral children, public floggings, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 19.503 billion Round Meals have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Your Stomach. The average income tax rate is 16.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Protein-Blasted economy, worth a remarkable 3,163 trillion Macaronis a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 162,195 Macaronis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Talkative students are escorted from schools in second-hand prison buses, asylum seekers have voted Arbonium as best layover destination, Davis Henton's military council has been nicknamed 'The Knights of the Rotund Table', and scientists are terrified of fabulous new breakthroughs. Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Arbonium's national animal is the Beef, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Arbonium is ranked 157,611th in the world and 58th in Capitalist Paradise for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 833.28 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
