The People's State of Akcelis is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Varus Eliontaris with an iron fist, and notable for its public floggings, compulsory military service, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 5.439 billion Akcelians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Celerium. The average income tax rate is 57.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Akcelian economy, worth 759 trillion Velics a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 139,651 Velics, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.8 times as much as the poorest.

Virtually all of the country's economic activity takes place in Celerium, rumours have it that a secret police is responsible for the recent spate of missing persons, anti-vaxxers claim that injected children are prone to psychotic breaks when they see the 'Queen of Diamonds' playing card, and the nation's new Mylab space station is notorious for being the loneliest place above the planet. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Akcelis's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Akcelis is ranked 211,681^st in the world and 17^th in Greater Ixnay for Safest, scoring 54.92 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
