The Republic of Asgareth is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by President Denzyl Pera with an iron fist, and renowned for its closed borders, free-roaming dinosaurs, and disturbing lack of elderly people. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 23.713 billion Asgarthians 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, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Law & Order and Industry also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Zaralencia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 85.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Asgarthan economy, worth a remarkable 9,105 trillion Pesos a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 384,000 Pesos, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,893,585 per year while the poor average 44,364, a ratio of 42.7 to 1.

Military pilots spend more time scraping feathers off their engines than flying their aircraft, the stratosphere is full of "silent but deadly" attacks from President Denzyl Pera's rear echelons, the military will start wars with other nations on a lark, and adults have never outgrown their fear of monsters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. Asgareth's national animal is the Griffin, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Asgareth is ranked 306,246^th in the world and 19^th in The Charter for Longest Average Lifespans, with 58.37 years.
