The Holy Militant Tsardom of Aroltia is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Tsar Sergei I with an iron fist, and notable for its closed borders, zero percent divorce rate, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 13.283 billion Aroltians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Industry also on the agenda, while Social Policy and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Snezhnyygrad. The average income tax rate is 95.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Aroltian economy, worth a remarkable 3,424 trillion Arols a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 257,773 Arols, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,004,567 per year while the poor average 45,170, a ratio of 22.2 to 1.

Children as young as twelve are conscripted into the armed forces, escargots have lost their charm ever since they started to be called 'cooked land snails', the national Police Academies have dedicated infant wings, and exorbitant spending on icebreakers breaks the ice at every budget meeting. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aroltia's national animal is the Polar Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is the Aroltian Orthodox Church.

Aroltia is ranked 282,125^th in the world and 13^th in Montealba for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -8.68 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
