The Federation of Ashroynia is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its daily referendums, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 286 million Ashroynians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Brusgan. The average income tax rate is 77.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Ashroynian economy, worth 14.5 trillion Dyferis 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 mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 50,761 Dyferis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The examiners who examine examiners are being examined by examiners, Ashroynia has designated Brusgan as its capital city, Brancalandian Brie isn't available anywhere in Ashroynia, and ice-filled coffins are ominously positioned in the corner of every hospital ward. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ashroynia's national animal is the Gracious Ladybird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Ashroynia is ranked 301,484^th in the world and 298^th in Wintreath for Most Patriotic, with 0.71 flags saluted per person per day.
