The Fascist State of AchillesHeel is a right wing Totalitarianist dictatorship in the Region The Ghetto Revival. The government is publicly racist and people of the racial majority recieve preferential treatment by the government, the legal system and traditionally even in the private sector.
AchillesHeel is the largest nation in The Ghetto Revival as far as population and also maintains the largest and most well funded military in the Region. This is suspected by critics to be the reason that AchillesHeel is given so much freedom in the international community regarding domestic issues, because no one is willing to risk going to war with the economic and military superpower that is AchillesHeel.
AchillesHeel is led by the Supreme Chancellor Karl Volkmann and his Fascist Party, to which absolutely no opposition is allowed.

Government
Leadership
The Fascist Party is considered the absolute ruling class of AchillesHeel, and no secondary parties are allowed to be formed, or even theoretically discussed or it is common knowledge that the perpetrators will charged with High Treason and executed.
The leader of the Party, called the Supreme Chancellor, is considered the ultimate ideal of humanity and a cult of personality is maintained around the leader at all times.
The Supreme Chancellor has the ultimate right to appoint and relieve public officials as he sees fit, and needs to provide no explanation, and is granted absolute authority on all matters.
"Parliament"
AchillesHeel has what they call a "Parliament" building in their capital of Neu Brunswich, but despite an elected representative of the people it serves as only a governmental headquarters. This is where most governmental officials work and where all the paperwork is done.
The Supreme Chancellor ultimately decides what becomes law, usually but not necessarily on the advice of his advisors. Once he has made his decision, it is immediately codified in the legal system. Similarly the Supreme Chancellor has the authority to automatically repeal any laws as he sees fit.
Succession
The government of AchillesHeel despises the concept of hereditary monarchy, and as such when the Supreme Chancellor dies his council of advisors will discuss and vote on who to replace him with. Only high ranking Party members are eligible for consideration. The Supreme Chancellor's successor is chosen based on the qualities considered to be most important to the nation at the time (in times of war a military expert may be chosen, whereas in times of domestic unrest a charismatic and/or ruthless leader may be chosen).
Culture
Sports
AchillesHeel sponsors elite athletes so they can train without having to take time off of their sport to work. Sports are used to develop nationalism, and as such international sporting events are emphasized much more in AchillesHeel than local ones, as they like to exhibit their superiority over other "inferior" and/or "impure" nations.
Most mainstream sports are played in AchillesHeel, the most popular ones being track and field related (various distance running, discus, javelin, long jump, etc.) and Soccer.
National Holidays
AchillesHeel has no official National Holidays, as people are expected to be willing to work whenever they're needed.
National Animal
AchillesHeel's National Animal is the Boar, which is considered to embody the ideals and aggressive spirit of the nation.
Boars were once found all over AchillesHeel, but have become far less prevalent as a consequence of AchillesHeel's massive human population and largescale industrialization at the expense of the environment.
