The Republic of Achlys 31 is a massive, genial nation, renowned for its smutty television, compulsory military service, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, devout population of 3.44 billion Achlys 31ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 57.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Achlys 31ian economy, worth 327 trillion salts a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 95,241 salts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Minor parties are virtually absent in Parliament, construction workers evacuate work sites after finding sharp rocks on the ground, television characters who ask how someone's doing are charged with harassment, and 4-year-olds studying for their mathematics exams are anxious that they will be unemployable in adulthood if they fail. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Achlys 31's national animal is the llama, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Achlys 31 is ranked 55,854^th in the world and 1^st in Jeffersonia for Healthiest Citizens, with 4.98 bananas ingested per day.
