“For the people”

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

The People's Republic of Arzolvakia is a huge, efficient nation, ruled by Glorious Leader Danyik Nolshkavic with an iron fist, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, ritual sacrifices, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 812 million Arzolvakians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Neu Arzol. The average income tax rate is 55.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Arzolvakian economy, worth 104 trillion Arzolvakian Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 128,611 Arzolvakian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Screenwriters and actors seem to be in short supply these days, if a tree falls in the forest Glorious Leader Danyik Nolshkavic is personally notified, motorbike jousters live young and die fast, and turnstile jumpers grow up to be tax cheats. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Arzolvakia's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Arzolvakia is ranked 32,508^th in the world and 41^st in The Kodiak Republic for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 4,619.58 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
