The Democratic Metropoles of Arzibe is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Il Saviaza with an even hand, and remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 12.436 billion Arzibites enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Imuzaga. The average income tax rate is 77.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Arzibean economy, worth a remarkable 1,329 trillion Benus a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 106,907 Benus, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Advertisements for jobs in the sciences run in fashion magazines, populations of two-headed Alpacas have been found around recently-uncovered archaeological sites, military equipment is being auctioned off to extend comatose centenarians' lives, and captains must wait until all rats are safe before jumping ship. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Arzibe's national animal is the Alpaca, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Arzibe is ranked 311,112^th in the world and 279^th in Forest for Most Patriotic, with 0.49 flags saluted per person per day.
