The Free Federation of Goldsaver is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by President-Imperial Melis with a fair hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 33.822 billion Akaitans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Marsi. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Akaitian economy, worth a remarkable 9,683 trillion Imperial Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 286,312 Imperial Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The price of takeaway food quadruples after 6pm, the military is slashing spending on conventional arms and diverting it to spending on prosthetic arms, government officials sit helplessly as they are labelled 'Pompous Womples' by celebrities, and international commentators accuse the nation of aggressive cultural imperialism. Crime is totally unknown. Goldsaver's national animal is the Golden Dragon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Goldsaver is ranked 3,030th in the world and 7th in The Union of Democratic States for Lowest Crime Rates, with 130.04 law-abiding acts per hour.
