The Father of Northern Ariton Ryursioy is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Amir Al-Farooq with an iron fist, and notable for its public floggings, compulsory military service, and ban on automobiles. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 1.791 billion Aritons are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nordaritium. The average income tax rate is 46.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Ariton Ryursioyian civilian economy, worth 163 trillion baht a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 91,422 baht, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Political dissidents are cut off from essential services, young soldiers are shocked to discover there are no 'safe spaces' on a battlefield, hidden bedroom-cams are installed to catch mothers doing their kids' homework, and disaster relief budgets are growing like wildfire. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Northern Ariton Ryursioy's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is islam.

Northern Ariton Ryursioy is ranked 235,239th in the world and 4,110th in The East Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 4.38 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
