The Bahian Council Republic of Asase Lewa is a massive, genial nation, ruled by the Presidium of the Asalewan Section with an even hand, and notable for its fear of technology, rampant corporate plagiarism, and compulsory military service. The compassionate population of 2.985 billion Asalewans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Edudzi Agyeman City. The average income tax rate is 87.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Asalewan economy, worth 211 trillion work points 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 significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Cheese Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 70,751 work points, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cops in Edudzi Agyeman City spend much of their time napping on a park bench next to Embassy Row, when people ask what the difference is between politicians and lawyers they are referred to document c15(iv) section 14.1 subsection 3.2 of the Jan 2015 political category definition guidance codes, there's nothing more rock-and-roll than absolute sobriety, and the volume of paperwork used to complete a single environmental assessment defeats the purpose. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Asase Lewa's national animal is the gorilla, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Nemtsovism-Tretyakism-Adelajism-Edudzism.

Asase Lewa is ranked 45,110^th in the world and 18^th in Kylaris for Most Cultured, scoring 73 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
