The Free Land of Akeland is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by a benevolent artificial intelligence with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, lack of airports, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 18.697 billion Akelandians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Parankuu. The average income tax rate is 93.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Akelandian economy, worth a remarkable 3,715 trillion Elekas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 198,699 Elekas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A benevolent artificial intelligence's peyote-induced "let's all just be friends" speech is trending world-wide, new government leaflets tell coeliac children to eat more crisps, the government is washing its hands of alleged corruption, and children searching for cat videos must watch dogs in equal proportion. Crime is totally unknown. Akeland's national animal is the slowworm, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Akeland is ranked 18,754th in the world and 58th in Europeia for Largest Populations, with 18.7 billion capita.
