The Republic of Achlys 40 is a colossal, orderly nation, remarkable for its ban on automobiles, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 6.127 billion Achlys 40ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The large government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare also on the agenda. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 55.3%.
The thriving Achlys 40ian economy, worth 455 trillion salts a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 74,296 salts, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 236,687 per year while the poor average 17,742, a ratio of 13.3 to 1.
Mining safety laws are often more expensive than what's being mined, the beauty of coastal towns is marred only slightly by all the closed-down storefronts, tombstones are ten feet high to accommodate the names of inhabitants, and male friends are often accompanied by a female relative in order to prove their 'straightness'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Achlys 40's national animal is the llama, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
Achlys 40 is ranked 246,455th in the world and 3,754th in Artificial Solar System for Most Stationary, with 19.82052898152 days.
