The Federal Republic of Arable and Strand

“Onward Together”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Federal Republic of Arable and Strand is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Chair of the Federal Executive Chamber with a fair hand, and remarkable for its otherworldly petting zoo, ubiquitous missile silos, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.223 billion Arable and Strandians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Roanoke. The average income tax rate is 66.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Arable and Strandian economy, worth 760 trillion Arands a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 145,697 Arands, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Five-year-olds chanting "Little Miss Muffet" are accused of bullying arachnophobes, statistics show that terrorists often come from broken families, Eau de Trashcan has become a wildly popular perfume, and the nation's generous tax credits have brought all the film studios to the yard. Crime is totally unknown. Arable and Strand's national animal is the Fox, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Arable and Strand is ranked 68,586^th in the world and 325^th in Europe for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 3,487.7 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
