The Loving Couple of -4rtF4n- is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Owlbert with an even hand, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, vat-grown people, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 4.872 billion -4rtF4n-ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Owl House. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 67.2%.

The frighteningly efficient -4rtF4n-ian economy, worth 566 trillion snails a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 116,206 snails, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 513,716 per year while the poor average 16,444, a ratio of 31.2 to 1.

The only women behind bars are barmaids, the nation has returned to more conventional warfare to slaughter its enemies, the government has enacted freedom of information, and children get arrested for floating paper boats on lakes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -4rtF4n-'s national animal is the owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Cards.

-4rtF4n- is ranked 260,324^th in the world and 3^rd in Riemst for Most Primitive, scoring -191.48 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
