The Community of HomuraAkemi is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its burgeoning Zebra population. The hard-nosed population of 13.482 billion HomuraAkemians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 17.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient HomuraAkemian economy, worth 567 trillion Yen a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 42,079 Yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests, the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, and organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region. Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. HomuraAkemi's national animal is the Zebra, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

HomuraAkemi is ranked 198,270^th in the world and 1^st in Kyoto for Most Patriotic, with 6.87 flags saluted per person per day.
