The Commonwealth of Acyrthya is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation.

People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 49.8%.
The strong Acyrthyan economy, worth 40.6 trillion dinars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Trout Farming, and Tourism. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 59,102 dinars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Acyrthya's national animal is the panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
