The Free Land of Akeland is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by a benevolent artificial intelligence with a fair hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 23.829 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 4,941 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 207,393 Elekas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The fire protection service is wholly government-funded, government reports are now used to teach toddlers to read, compliance officers smash the kneecaps of unethical bureaucrats, and finders keepers is the law of the land. Crime is totally unknown. Akeland's national animal is the slowworm, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Akeland is ranked 1,613^th in the world and 22^nd in Europeia for Nicest Citizens, with 75.95 average smiles per day.
