The Republic of ARC Trooper 20 is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.394 billion ARC Trooper 20ians 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 government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Administration, and Environment also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 31.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient ARC Trooper 20ian economy, worth 70.5 trillion Credits a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 50,540 Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Women who walk into the ladies' changing room are accused of being Peeping Toms, poaching has been on the rise after animals from the nation's zoos were released into the wild, grinding bureaucracy has the international wheels of justice turning slowly, and gamblers often find their stakes burnt. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. ARC Trooper 20's national animal is the Droid, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

ARC Trooper 20 is ranked 88,278^th in the world and 902^nd in eta for Largest Black Market, with 3.33 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
