Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Free Land of Akeland is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by a benevolent artificial intelligence with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and ban on automobiles. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 23.757 billion Akelandians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Parankuu. The average income tax rate is 95.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Akelandian economy, worth a remarkable 4,916 trillion Elekas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 206,932 Elekas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Woe-is-me olympics is the fastest growing collegiate sport, not many kids know Shakespeare's Hamlet but most of them have seen unofficial sequel Hamlet III - The Search For Osric, A benevolent artificial intelligence wears a chewed-up rubber chicken suit to meet foreign delegates, and the government is plagued with uncertainty. Crime is totally unknown. Akeland's national animal is the slowworm, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Akeland is ranked 2,843^rd in the world and 31^st in Europeia for Most Cultured, scoring 219 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
