The | The Arcer economy can be considered to be robust, and is appraised by most to be a mix market economy, although some government regulators wish to see a greater emphasis on command-style economic policies to protect Arco interests. This leads to the population of ~94,000,000 having a GDP per capita of $56,490, and a total national GDP of $2.957 trillion. Economists would consider the Arcer economy to be Agrarian/Industrial, with most pointing out that Arcerion can't seem to decide if it wants to fully embrace industry or retain its agricultural and traditional economic practices. The Arcer economy revolves predominantly around its exports, and is an export-focused economy, being almost self-sufficient. Its main exports are usually defined by the governate that they emanate from, with each of the four governates having a distinctly different economic intake and output. | ||
Foxhey, the smallest of the Arco governates, has a mostly agrarian economy. It also boasts a healthy fishing sector, which thrives during the Malentine Sea's spring and summer. Characterized by its traditional economy, the small towns and villages export wheat, barley, and other grain crops. It is ranked as one of the most productive economies from a provincial-standpoint in Arcerion. | Foxhey, the smallest of the Arco governates, has a mostly agrarian economy.

Arcerion's history has been mostly comprised of Ænglish-speaking cultures from the Occidental world, and primarily Levantia. While Arcer citizens have developed many distinct accents and culturally distinct dialects within Ænglish, it is still recognizable as Ænglish to non-native speakers. Over 90% of Arcerion speak some form of Ænglish as its primary language, and within the nation nearly 1/3rd have a second language, reflecting Arcerion's immigrant roots. Arcerion's government uses Ænglish as its official language and it is the only mandated language that is taught in schools and legislated. In some rural parts of Arcerion, Gaelic is still spoken daily, although the amount of Arcers that are monolingual Gaels is less than 1.5%. Indigenous languages are spoken by the Indigenous permanent residents, and there is a wide variety spoken between the Washakaran Basin and the Kelekonese Border area. | Arcerion's history has been mostly comprised of Ænglish-speaking cultures from the Occidental world, and primarily Levantia.

Arcerion is a nation that has a variety of religions, most of them coming from immigrants in Levantia. The only non-Levantine religion belongs to the Indigenous peoples of Arcerion, who worship a variety of different gods and deities that are not Occidental. Arcerion has a growing irreligious movement that believes that as the government is already secular, even if founded upon Protestant values and teachings, that the population should trend this way as well. Over the 20th century, the irreligious movement has increased markedly, and by 2022 it was at its highest, and estimated to continue to grow among young people and new immigrants. Efforts by the Protestant Church of Arcerion to combat the growing rise of irreligious youth have seen a level of cooperation between Anglicans and Protestants not usually seen in Arcerion. The majority of Catholics in Arcerion arrive from Urcea or former members of the Holy Levantine Empire. Religion in Arcerion is not entwined with the state as in some other nations, and it has been secular since the granting of semi-soveriengty in 1890. {{bar box | |||

Arcer society and culture is largely influenced by Ardmori island culture, as well as influences from Levantine Ængles and Gaels. As a nation of immigrants, Arcerion is generally considered to be a 'melting pot' of different cultural, ethnic, and social backgrounds. While early on in its history Arcerion had social classes well defined by the Ardmori peerage system, these slowly were either disregarded or dismantled, and the idea of landed gentry and landowners were replaced with the communal spirit of settling the Arco frontier. Arcer culture largely revolves around a series of social norms based upon Arco Determinism, which is the governing social ethos and comunal memory of the Arco nation. | Arcer society and culture is largely influenced by Ardmori island culture, as well as influences from Levantine Ængles and Gaels.

Arco Determinism, also known as Frontier Spirit, is the governing political and cultural philosophy of Arcer citizens, a group of Cronan-naturalized Ardmori and Gaelic peoples who arrived between the 18th and 20th centuries to Southern Crona. The central ideology of Arcerion is a cultural and societal belief that the Arcer people (of the two major migratory groups during the colonial era) are destined to settle, civilize, and create a modern Occidental state in Crona. Concurrent to this, it is a common goal of the society and culture to defend Arcerion and its people, and by extension extend the rule of the Ardmori Crown. It also represents a common ethnic and cultural heritage from AEngles, Gaels, and Ardmori peoples on values such as community, the family compact, and self-reliance. | Arco Determinism, also known as Frontier Spirit, is the governing political and cultural philosophy of Arcer citizens, a group of Cronan-naturalized Ardmori and Gaelic peoples who arrived between the 18th and 20th centuries to Southern Crona.
