The Kingdom of Arthas Menethil is a gargantuan, orderly nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws and suspicion of poets. The hard-working, cynical population of 16.549 billion Arthas Menethilians enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The minute, liberal, well-organized government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.7%.

The strong Arthas Menethilian economy, worth a remarkable 1,023 trillion baht a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Trout Farming, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 61,856 baht, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.

Shelters struggle to keep up with the endless intake of stray animals, strange looking men with big red noses are found hiding behind bushes and inside dustbins, the government has cut taxes in the face of widespread tax evasion, and the state is footing the bill for billionaires' lawyers. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Arthas Menethil's national animal is the cobra, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Arthas Menethil is ranked 263,925th in the world and 3rd in Icecrown Citadel for Safest, scoring 13.88 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
