The Free Republic of Akida is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by President Miyoshi Tatsu with a fair hand, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 3.258 billion Akinese hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chukyo. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 19.2%.

The very strong Akinese economy, worth 222 trillion zais a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Soda Sales, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 68,281 zais, with the richest citizens earning 6.1 times as much as the poorest.

The government is a clear-cut case of tyranny by majority, athletic teenagers are among the wealthiest members of society, parents dread their examinations more than their children, and diplomatic missions are often mistaken as declarations of war. Crime is relatively low. Akida's national animal is the tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Akida is ranked 295,728^th in the world and 71^st in Thaecia for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -7.32 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
