The Oppressed Peoples of Ar-Pharazon is a mammoth, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, daily referendums, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 8.837 billion Ar-Pharazonians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 20.8%.

The thriving Ar-Pharazonian economy, worth 579 trillion Prides a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 65,583 Prides, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens must inform the government each time they have a haircut, minorities play dumb to get more welfare payments, black market eau de toilette is made in bathroom labs across the nation, and prisoners can't do number twos without their "toilet buddy" present. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ar-Pharazon's national animal is the Melkor, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Ar-Pharazon is ranked 89,043^rd in the world and 1^st in Numenor for Safest, scoring 87.76 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
