The Empire of Acharybdis is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Grand Elector Sakura Hua with an iron fist, and remarkable for its aversion to nipples, compulsory military service, and vat-grown people. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.512 billion Acharybdisians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Education are also considered important, while Social Policy and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lustria. The average income tax rate is 97.8%.
The frighteningly efficient Acharybdisian economy, worth a remarkable 3,687 trillion deaths a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 490,829 deaths, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,155,569 per year while the poor average 70,273, a ratio of 30.7 to 1.
Grand Elector Sakura Hua signs the laws but abides by none of them, children grow up long before the paperwork for their lemonade stands can be sorted out, all gamers have been drafted into the military despite their lack of upper body strength, and the new 'Things We Stole From Other Countries' exhibition at the National Museum of Antiquities is a hit. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Acharybdis's national animal is the siberian tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Holy Church of Terra.
Acharybdis is ranked 2,139th in the world and 32nd in the West Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 142.19 law-abiding acts per hour.
