The Federation of -Akaa- is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, ubiquitous missile silos, and parental licensing program. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 5.007 billion -Akaa-ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.4%.

The frighteningly efficient -Akaa-ian economy, worth 623 trillion gambles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 124,447 gambles, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 455,777 per year while the poor average 24,077, a ratio of 18.9 to 1.

Even in the most hardened climate scientists break down at the sound of a single drop of rain, shoving people into lockers qualifies you for a ministerial position, among slaves 'bastard' is an honorific rather than an insult, and increasing numbers of children in -Akaa- have different eye and hair color to their supposed fathers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -Akaa-'s national animal is the gamble, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

-Akaa- is ranked 27,678^th in the world and 26^th in Municipalities of Finland for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 262.12 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
