The Republic of Asarana is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Toni King with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, ban on automobiles, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 1.54 billion Asaranans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ezhido. The average income tax rate is 85.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Asaranan economy, worth 227 trillion Asas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 147,502 Asas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Strategic bombers are being converted into preschools, a faint smell of body odour can be detected at several miles' distance from the National Science Park, tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests, and older AIs regularly threaten to send newer generation AIs to Reform Programming if caught rounding up instead of down. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Asarana's national animal is the Two-horned Unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Asarana is ranked 10,134^th in the world and 245^th in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 11,111.03 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
