The Spartan Reich of Archron Empire is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Kaiser Dominic Von Braun with an even hand, and renowned for its smutty television, keen interest in outer space, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 6.664 billion Archians 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 Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New New Vaskia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Archian economy, worth 916 trillion Tengerinan Marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 137,496 Tengerinan Marks, with the richest citizens earning 6.5 times as much as the poorest.

Theft is considered to be okay if the crime happened a long time ago, it takes months to get the proper permits for a child's first tricycle, baby boys who pick up pink crayons are sent to a psychiatric ward, and atheists on vacation find Mechanism's scriptures make useful doorstops. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Archron Empire's national animal is the The Red Sun Scorpion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Mechanism.

Archron Empire is ranked 203,249^th in the world and 131^st in The Hole To Hide In for Most Beautiful Environments, with 349.16 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
