The Praetorian Republic of Arcomo is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Diederick Antonius with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, parental licensing program, and smutty television. The compassionate, cheerful population of 17.692 billion Arcomen enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Social Policy, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Utopiapolis. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Arcoman economy, worth a remarkable 4,248 trillion aureis 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 led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 240,160 aureis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Economic output is rising as the chronically depressed are persuaded not to burden society, children are raised bilingual from an early age, children are disappointed to learn that cavemen never had a yabba-dabba-doo time riding dinosaurs to work, and ministers are now allowed to put suggestions in the governmental suggestion box. Crime is totally unknown. Arcomo's national animal is the Grizzly Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Arcomo is ranked 330,155th in the world and 66th in The Social Liberal Union for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -22.92 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
