The Federation of United Clans of Akross is a colossal, cultured nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, aversion to nipples, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 2.757 billion akrossians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rozul. The average income tax rate is 80.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient akrossian economy, worth 499 trillion Ponders a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 181,264 Ponders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Petitions to the government are being used to insulate politicians' office walls, the government snoops on private internet connections, a new "thought police" branch is being developed, and the government puts forth the claim that harming young girls is wrong. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Akross's national animal is the Gigantopithecus, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Akross is ranked 72,562nd in the world and 106th in The League for Safest, scoring 94.77 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
