The Federation of Akelphia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Federal Council with a fair hand, and notable for its digital currency, free-roaming dinosaurs, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, humorless population of 13.658 billion Akelphians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stoneport. The average income tax rate is 94.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Akelphian economy, worth a remarkable 1,684 trillion Akelphian Dollars a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 123,299 Akelphian Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

There's a lot of smoke from the nation's "green economy", bad punctuation has come to a full stop, 50% of adverts on children's television are for clothes made of cotton wool, and there's nothing more gay than bleeding for your nation. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Akelphia's national animal is the Akelphian Otter, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Akelphia is ranked 30,471^st in the world and 978^th in Balder for Largest Populations, with 13.7 billion capita.
