The Nomadic Tribe of Acequa is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Chief Jükagü with a fair hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, ritual sacrifices, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 19.055 billion Acequans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The land. The average income tax rate is 68.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Acequan economy, worth 367 trillion Qualites 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, extremely specialized black market in Trout Farming. 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 19,288 Qualites, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The pursuit of wanted criminals ends at the entrance of the pay'n'spray garage as police refuse to enter any private property, the nation's school children are fluent in Klingon but lack basic mathematical skills, crime is on the rise as DNA sampling has been all but outlawed, and fireworks and other big bangs are forbidden during the newest public holiday. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Acequa's national animal is the Spider, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Animism.

Acequa is ranked 28,299th in the world and 8th in Hippy Haven for Highest Drug Use, scoring 360.94 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
