The Federal Republic of Dome Artan is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Prime Minister Efrain Arrabal with a fair hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 3.294 billion Dome Artanians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Influence Fortress. The average income tax rate is 58.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Dome Artanian economy, worth 321 trillion Endorsements a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Trout Farming, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 97,557 Endorsements, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
