The Parliamentary Republic of Artlantic Islands is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Prime Minister with an even hand, and notable for its aversion to nipples, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 6.189 billion nordics have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Artlantic City. The average income tax rate is 18.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Artlantic Islandsian economy, worth 892 trillion Euros a year, is led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 144,280 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

The military is blowing up any threat to employment within the nation, children's bedrooms are often decorated with posters of successful accountants, the sidewalk is used as an overtaking lane by city drivers, and Prime Minister's webseries about the alleged hauntings of Artlantic City generates millions of views. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Artlantic Islands's national animal is the siberian husky, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Artlantic Islands is ranked 8,186^th in the world and 174^th in Europe for Highest Food Quality, scoring 174.29 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
