The United Island States of AHSCA is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Marcella Villa with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, fear of technology, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 25.657 billion AHSCAians 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is primarily concerned with Environment, although Healthcare, Social Policy, and Defense are also considered important, while Administration and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aurora Island. The average income tax rate is 97.1%.

The enormous but inefficient AHSCAian economy, worth a remarkable 2,226 trillion island credits a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Basket Weaving industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration. Average income is 86,795 island credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

AHSCAian husbands are dead good at fathering kids, urban entrepreneurs are busy introducing cockroaches into restaurant kitchens, the Man in the Plastic Mask has been imprisoned in the Capital Penitentiary, and years of counter-terrorism planning are foiled by small details. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. AHSCA's national animal is the Trout, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Madokamism.

AHSCA is ranked 101,343^rd in the world and 60^th in Greater Dienstad for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 4,917.66 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
