The United Antillean Kingdom of Achipel is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Melquíades I with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and public floggings. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 17.394 billion Achipelans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Paradí. The average income tax rate is 81.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Achipelan economy, worth a remarkable 2,056 trillion coronas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 118,242 coronas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Dancing with your first cousin is a misdemeanor, sex changes are routinely performed at Achipel's hospitals, factories place endangered birds in their rafters in pursuit of government protections, and constipated disaster survivors are rapidly learning that MRE is short for "Meal Requiring Enemas". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Achipel's national animal is the macaw, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Achipel is ranked 157,307th in the world and 41st in Alcris for Most Stationary, with 134.36875428172 days.
