The Federation of Acastanha is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Joao Makarin with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 1.803 billion Acastanhans 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Amarelda. The average income tax rate is 46.1%.

The strong Acastanhan economy, worth 145 trillion Acastanha Patacas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 80,553 Acastanha Patacas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Would-be emigrants are told "abandon all hope all ye who would exit here", young soldiers are shocked to discover there are no 'safe spaces' on a battlefield, all guns must be registered, and a faint smell of body odour can be detected at several miles' distance from the National Science Park. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Acastanha's national animal is the North Brown Deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Acastanha is ranked 29,659^th in the world and 10^th in Melayu Archipelago for Lowest Crime Rates, with 75.34 Law-abiding Acts Per Hour.
