The Socialist Federation of Arkuta is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Ivan Kuznetsov with an even hand, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 2.872 billion Arkutans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government prioritizes Administration, with Education, Law & Order, and Defense also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Voldestok. The average income tax rate is 66.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Arkutan economy, worth 187 trillion kets a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 65,233 kets, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Police officers often conceal their identities to safeguard against public complaints, maximum security fish farms leave caged salmon pining for the fjords, a small country is wondering where their capitol building's gold dome went, and religious education is a new government priority. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Arkuta's national animal is the Gyrfalcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Arkuta is ranked 34,132^nd in the world and 3^rd in Bethsaida for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 5,429.92 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
