The Clan of Akin Trade Federations is a massive, economically powerful nation, ruled by Overlord Tempest Maelstrom Malice with an iron fist, and remarkable for its punitive income tax rates. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 4.303 billion are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is mainly concerned with Defence, although Law & Order and Commerce are on the agenda. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of ŞtöřmVîllé. The average income tax rate is 99%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry.

Graffiti artists spend lengthy periods of time in jail, the internet has been placed under government control, membership in the state-owned Church of Akin Trade Federations is mandatory and all other faith organisations are banned, and those found guilty of illicit affairs are jailed. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Akin Trade Federations's national animal is the Hammerhead Scorpion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is Devout Agnosticism , and its currency is the Qwerty.

Akin Trade Federations is ranked 37th in Scotland and 129,982nd in the world for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring -115 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
