The United Federation of Arkengia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Allantra with an even hand, and renowned for its national health service, digital currency, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cheerful population of 7.912 billion Arkengians 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 Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Unifica. The average income tax rate is 97.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Arkengian economy, worth a remarkable 1,435 trillion Arenoes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 181,426 Arenoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People who have had childhood imaginary friends are told they can't ever be trusted with guns, school plays were recently banned due to concerns of child endangerment, The Pipe Bomb Makers' Pop-Up Book can be found in preschool libraries, and conspiracy theorists allege Unifica's new subway map resembles Satanic symbols. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Arkengia's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Arkengian Faith.

Arkengia is ranked 114,183rd in the world and 1,350th in the West Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,887.69 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
