The Federation of Acastanha is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by President Miranda Garbuno with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 9.965 billion Acastanhadas are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social and economic equality; they tend to view other countries as corrupted by the hollow pageantry of sham elections.

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 49.8%.

The strong Acastanhada economy, worth 804 trillion Acastanha Patacas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 80,742 Acastanha Patacas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Clowns are being rounded up and admitted to mental institutions, the government only invests in infrastructure after a natural disaster, citizens cannot change their light bulbs without approval from an international committee, and families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain. 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 123,910^th in the world and 8^th in Marcapada for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 40,532.54 Standard Monetary Units.
