The Democratic Republic of Ardok is a huge, genial nation, ruled by Anthony Lecter with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 779 million Ardokians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Suhl. The average income tax rate is 77.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Ardokian economy, worth 86.9 trillion Ardokian leks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 111,579 Ardokian leks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Third world countries are rich in "I Love Suhl" t-shirts, Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Suhl to enjoy their national art, scientific journals publish third-graders' school essays, and school nurse's offices feature full-service operating suites. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ardok's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ardok is ranked 69,962nd in the world and 2,099th in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 95.2 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
