The Autocratic State of The Arusian Empire is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Jäger with an iron fist, and renowned for its strictly enforced bedtime, infamous sell-swords, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.054 billion Arusians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Healthcare, Administration, and Law & Order are also considered important, while International Aid isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arusia City. The average income tax rate is 52.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Arusian Empirean economy, worth 84.8 trillion Credits a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Book Publishing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 80,439 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

State media features lively debates such as whether pineapple on pizza is an acceptable topping, the nationalised Arms Manufacturing Industry is not interested in making weapons, The Very Hungry Caterpillar has been banned for advocating gluttony, and unpopular scientists are shunned by name. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Arusian Empire's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

The Arusian Empire is ranked 146,984^th in the world and 252^nd in the Outback for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 37,967.34 Standard Monetary Units.
