The State of Achigana is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by the Governor with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, sprawling nuclear power plants, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The cynical population of 29.497 billion Achiganans 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, well-organized government prioritizes Law & Order, with Industry, Social Policy, and Public Transport also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 31.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Achiganan economy, worth a remarkable 1,023 trillion betales a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Arms Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 34,688 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, every citizen must submit to DNA testing to be eliminated from police inquiries, Jennifer Government is a bestseller, and Rupert Bear is considered to be the most risqué TV programme in Achigana. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Achigana's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Achigana is ranked 191,233^rd in the world and 7^th in Nauru for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -2.05 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
