The Artherianisches Reich of The United Artherian Federation is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Kaiser Otto with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, infamous sell-swords, and strictly enforced bedtime. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 11.235 billion Artherians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Education, Industry, and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Berlin. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Artherian economy, worth a remarkable 4,622 trillion Marks a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Trout Farming. Average income is an amazing 411,410 Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Eckie-Ecola has declared that their soda poop is The Real Thing, coffee-addicted citizens look forward to baristas getting their name wrong at local coffee shops, military spending is on the increase, and the environment is gorgeous so long as you're looking up. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. The United Artherian Federation's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

The United Artherian Federation is ranked 95,484^th in the world and 8^th in United Forum of Nations for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,872.86 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
