The Homelands of South Akia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Servalan with an even hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, prohibition of alcohol, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 10.635 billion South Akians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Akia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 41.9%.
The frighteningly efficient South Akian economy, worth 835 trillion Federation Credits a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Retail, and Pizza Delivery. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 78,519 Federation Credits, with the richest citizens earning 7.5 times as much as the poorest.
Politicians and casino owners who so much as wander into the same room are arrested on the spot, a new guerrilla marketing campaign for tap water involves government agents spraying random citizens with hose water, translators have been hired to deal with the varying regional accents during national political debates, and elections have become procedural nightmares due to voters persistently rejecting candidates. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. South Akia's national animal is the giraffe, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Church of Akia.
South Akia is ranked 53,470th in the world and 36th in The Order of the Grey Wardens for Most Valuable International Artwork, with zero Bank.
