The Phantom Thieves of Akkaga is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Volkskaiser Vyse Von Steiner with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, rampant corporate plagiarism, and punitive income tax rates. The democratic, humorless population of 16.226 billion Akkagians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grazna. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Akkagan economy, worth a remarkable 2,172 trillion Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 133,870 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A faint smell of body odour can be detected at several miles distance from the National Science Park, the nation's politicians are known more for the internet memes they spawn than any of their accomplishments, Volkskaiser Vyse Von Steiner's office has a newly installed Max-Man arcade game programmed by a 5th-grader, and bemused citizens are encouraged to sing foreign-language hymns of religions they have never heard of. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Akkaga's national animal is the Harpy Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Akkaga is ranked 144,541^st in the world and 10^th in Ordis for Most Armed, with 0.19 Weapons Per Person.
