The Federal Republic of Arcadim is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, daily referendums, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.363 billion Arcadians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Singapura. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Arcadimian economy, worth a remarkable 1,210 trillion dollors a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 164,377 dollors, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Veteran cops reminisce over their heavy armor days, on-duty Air Arcadim flight attendants are usually seen napping in first class, psychiatrists that date patients are congratulated on their romantic conquests, and drug deals return to the streets as legions of undercover officers stalk the dark web. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Arcadim's national animal is the Asian Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Arcadim is ranked 6,334th in the world and 308th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 148 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
