The Ethereal Empire of Arthropyria is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Emperor Talong Mantisimus with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, anti-smoking policies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 8.077 billion Arthropods are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Incepion. The average income tax rate is 97.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Arthropyrian economy, worth a remarkable 1,496 trillion Aracheons 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 and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 185,253 Aracheons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Excessive wheelchair ramps on government buildings have been compared to theme park attractions, children gain their first sex education from reading the dictionary, science centers and state of the art laboratories are ubiquitous, and handling people's data is proving an immersive experience. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Arthropyria's national animal is the Ohmu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Entomolity.

Arthropyria is ranked 68,393rd in the world and 533rd in the Pacific for Most Stationary, with 691.029939685 days.
