The United Antillean Kingdom of Achipel is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Melquíades I with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 17.625 billion Achipelans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Paradí. The average income tax rate is 82.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Achipelan economy, worth a remarkable 2,070 trillion coronas a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 117,497 coronas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Dancing with your first cousin is a misdemeanor, sex changes are routinely performed at Achipel's hospitals, factories place endangered birds in their rafters in pursuit of government protections, and constipated disaster survivors are rapidly learning that MRE is short for "Meal Requiring Enemas". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Achipel's national animal is the macaw, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Achipel is ranked 10,490^th in the world and 12^th in Alcris for Safest, scoring 120.48 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
