The Holy Purple Akila Kingdom of Tanan is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Akila'dima Rekayja with a fair hand, and renowned for its teetotalling pirates, prohibition of alcohol, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 1.603 billion Tananites enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tanan Kai. The average income tax rate is 72.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Tananite economy, worth 161 trillion Lims a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 101,022 Lims, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation is noticeably more cheerful on Tuesdays, any citizen who cries is immediately assigned a psychiatrist, garishly-decorated government buildings are being hailed as the height of 'religious nouveau', and politicians preface their speeches with a declaration that any resemblance to speeches given by individuals living or dead is purely coincidental. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tanan's national animal is the Dracula, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Radeism.

Tanan is ranked 283,495^th in the world and 91^st in Divorced Nations of Earth for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -6.26 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
