The Free Union of Acronius is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by President Roland Lellouche with a fair hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, pith helmet sales, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 7.666 billion Acronians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lionsgate. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 60.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Acronian economy, worth a remarkable 1,271 trillion Acronian Chromes a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 165,917 Acronian Chromes, with the richest citizens earning 9.2 times as much as the poorest.

Economic output is rising as the chronically depressed are persuaded not to burden society, the government has pinkie-promised never to use its veto power except in an emergency, in a fit of passion President Roland Lellouche has shredded thirty years' worth of petitions, and workers tend to schedule naps during all-hands meetings. Crime is totally unknown. Acronius's national animal is the Acronian Snow Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Agnosticism.

Acronius is ranked 17,204^th in the world and 43^rd in Renegade Islands Alliance for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 3,878.81 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
