The United Kingdom of Of Achesonia 8C is a fledgling, efficient nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 6 million Achesonia 8Cians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The tiny, moralistic, pro-business government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.8%.

The very strong Achesonia 8Cian economy, worth 420 billion Marks of power a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Average income is 70,165 Marks of power, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 303,821 per year while the poor average 10,297, a ratio of 29.5 to 1.

Exports of chewing gum are inexplicably falling, belief that Leader is a lizard-person from outer space has reached an all-time high, and organ donation is compulsory. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Of Achesonia 8C's national animal is the Koi fish, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

Of Achesonia 8C is ranked 132,654^th in the world and 1,046^th in the Rejected Realms for Most Developed, scoring 57.21 on the Human Development Index.
