The People's Community of Azkachena is a huge, cultured nation, renowned for its soft-spoken computers, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 715 million Azkachis are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, with Administration, Welfare, and Environment also on the agenda, while Defense and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Azka. The average income tax rate is 81.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming Azkacheni economy, worth 68.5 trillion Azkars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 95,810 Azkars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Azkachena's national animal is the colossal squid, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
