The Republic of AroAce Fish is a large, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical population of 178 million AroAce Fishians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 54.9%.

The AroAce Fishian economy, worth 11.3 trillion Cards a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 63,683 Cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Children in school playgrounds can be heard chanting the hymns of the Order of Violet, the government frequently panders to parents with boutique tax credits, the government baselessly accuses foreign dignitaries of being assassins, and the government has returned all business to private ownership. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. AroAce Fish's national animal is the Card, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

AroAce Fish is ranked 292,614^th in the world and 108^th in Fish Storage for Largest Populations, with 178 million capita.
