The State of Akatsukie is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and notable for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 12.085 billion Akatsukieans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Industry, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.2%.

The strong Akatsukiean economy, worth 718 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 59,486 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 386,072 per year while the poor average 3,657, a ratio of 105 to 1.

Military funding has been stripped back, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, Akatsukie has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of Akatsukie in an international press conference. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Akatsukie's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Akatsukie is ranked 285,856^th in the world and 7^th in Cameroon for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 93.96 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
