The Alienated States of Not ARB is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Bax Marry with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ban on automobiles, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 8.669 billion BoardMembers are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Folderol. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 20.8%.
The powerhouse Not ARBian economy, worth 539 trillion Markkaa a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is 62,264 Markkaa, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 395,208 per year while the poor average 4,068, a ratio of 97.1 to 1.
According to the latest national census as many as two-thirds of the respondents possibly consider 'violet' their favorite color, kids are gathering at the local soda shop to celebrate staying out past sundown, becoming a missionary is a sure-fire route to martyrdom, and nation-building is the new national pastime. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Not ARB's national animal is the SARS CoV-2 Virus, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is The Order of Violet.
Not ARB is ranked 291,658th in the world and 4th in Oahu for Most Stationary, with 2.44040121592 days.
