The Republic of Arquan is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Kalea Valerius with an even hand, and notable for its absence of drug laws, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 14.408 billion Arquanians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Casteldo. The average income tax rate is 95.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Arquanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,694 trillion Spoons a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Retail. Average income is an impressive 117,579 Spoons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Police officers that upset their bosses get assigned to 24 hour stakeouts of bike sheds, customer satisfaction with online delivery services is at an all time high, broken suspension systems are giving auto repair shops plenty of business, and grinding bureaucracy has the international wheels of justice turning slowly. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Arquan's national animal is the Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Arquan is ranked 168,884^th in the world and 5,922^nd in The North Pacific for Most Politically Apathetic Citizens, with 49.36 Whatever.
