The Illusory Spectre of Arrivederci is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by General Gorlomi with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 19.329 billion Arrivedercians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, corrupt, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Industry, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Welfare and Defense aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Margheriti. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Arrivedercian economy, worth a remarkable 7,441 trillion Gold Coins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an amazing 384,989 Gold Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

The price of freedom is about half a million Gold Coins, unemployed political consultants and advertisers spend every election night weeping for the good old days, banks now use correct pronouns when evicting people from their houses, and the only things written in the stars are arrest warrants for astrologers. Crime is totally unknown. Arrivederci's national animal is the Vampiric Narwhal, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Christianity.

Arrivederci is ranked 6,056^th in the world and 118^th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 10,036.19 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
