The Republic of Asios Vast is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Asios I with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 3.718 billion Asiosians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Asios City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Asios Vastian economy, worth 801 trillion Asiosian pesos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 215,525 Asiosian pesos, with the richest citizens earning 6.2 times as much as the poorest.

Grade school teachers mark homework with red "CITATION NEEDED" stamps, industry tycoons rarely hide their misdeeds due to the government's habit of bailing them out, the military refers to helpless combatants offering surrender as "sitting ducks", and Loud Patriotic Music Day has been ranked the seventh best new holiday of the year. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Asios Vast's national animal is the lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Asios Vast is ranked 104,298^th in the world and 672^nd in Europeia for Most Extensive Civil Rights, with 59.78 Martin Luther King, Jr. Units.
