The Grey Wolves of Achlan is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Wolf III with an even hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The quiet, industrious population of 24.546 billion Achlanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wolftown. The average income tax rate is 68.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Achlanian economy, worth 473 trillion Axes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, highly specialized black market in Pizza Delivery, Retail, Information Technology, and Trout Farming. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 19,307 Axes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Businesses are scrambling to adapt to the government's mandate that 'time and measurement no longer exist', Wolfism has been named as Achlan's national religion, Wolf III has just been declared ruler of Achlan in an international press conference, and Achlan has designated Wolftown as its capital city. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Achlan's national animal is the badger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Wolfism.

Achlan is ranked 12,165th in the world and 1st in Xagia for Most Valuable International Artwork, with zero Bank.
