The Empire of Asad-Vikramaditya is a very large, orderly nation, notable for its burgeoning Royal Bengal tiger population. The cynical, devout population of 218 million Asad-Vikramadityans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Spirituality, and Education. The average income tax rate is 37.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Asad-Vikramadityan economy, worth 8.59 trillion Rupees a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 39,403 Rupees, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military spending is on the increase, there's never a spare chair in the retirement home, TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, and high-income earners pay a 100% tax rate. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Asad-Vikramaditya's national animal is the Royal Bengal tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Asad-Vikramaditya is ranked 96,277^th in the world and 1^st in Jotunheimr for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 1,444.3 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
