History

A small kingdom in the Balkans,united under king Lejd after series of wars struck the region. The small kingdom grew quickly with it's strict monarchical government. Military was always important for this kingdom,even though it joined ,,The fighting Pacifists " ,27th great world war came around quickly and Arkons army defended it's people fiercely. When the time to counterattack came,that same army laid waste to enemy land in no time, destroying everything in their way.

Government 

With king Lejd being the supreme leader, nothing can be done without his permission. Advised by a large team of ministries, themselves advised by many experts in their respective fields, king Lejd was always open minded and allowed for some innovative ideas and solutions for different problems. Although very strict and authoritarian, kine Lejd continues to rule the country with an iron fist,and great support of his people. Unlike many other authoritarian countries,king Lejd actually cares about his people and schedules meetings to discuss important matters with them. There are no elections,but really important things that require people to vote will hold them.

Economy 

Led primarily by tertiary sector,Arkons economy is booming. Primary and secondary sectors are not lacking either,with large amounts of raw materials being refined into different goods. Military industry is especially important,with a large part of industry producing steel and different munitions. There are plans to start importing bauxite and oil to refine into aluminum and fuel,but experts belive that Arkons economy is not yet powerful enough to do that. The state controls most of the economy,with some major companies (such as Lidl, Lockheed Martin, Suhoi and Mikoyan)being allowed to operate in Arkon.Incredible economic growth has also enabled the nation to start a space program,build,launch and successfuly put 5 commercial satellites into orbit. Average income is 100.000 Arkonian dinars,with the bottom 10% earning about 56.000,and top 10% about 175.000. In order to be fair,king Lejd is earning the average salary.

People 

Although extremely authoritarian and strict, Arkons people are quite happy. Lejd regularly has talks and debates with his citizens, acknowledging their needs and worries, explaining certain things and even casually chatting sometimes. Drugs are strictly illegal,with even the smallest amount granting people lifetimes in prison. Cigarettes are also forbidden from being smoked in many places In order to protect people and environment.

Alcohol is a key part of Arkons culture,with kids as young as 12 being able to buy it,with parental permission and ID cards of course. Although people drink often, our roads are really safe,with not many accidents happening. Free speech is not guaranteed,but criticizing government will not send someone straight to jail,but schedule you a talk with someone to resolve your critics. That being said,there are cases where people are sent to jail,or even executed.

Death penalty and capital punishment are legal,many think that it is barbaric and immoral,but it does solve many problems too. Same !@#$ marriage and polygamy is strictly forbidden and will be punished severely. State religion is Arkonian Christian Orthodoxy, and the state mandates everyone to practice it. Some religions are banned. Immigration is extremely regulated,only people from friendly countries are allowed to immigrate and are forced to assimilate into our culture. Abortion is illegal in any case,same as weapons ownership. Government ensures that every citizen has a right to both primary and secondary education while encouraging every other form of higher education.

Military 

Arkons military has always been important. Even though we joined a pacifist alliance,we did not escape the grueling world wars after. Our army stood strong, managing to defeat enemies on 3 fronts,while our air force kept the skies clear and navy our supplies incoming. While we are militaristic, keeping a large army is really expensive.
