The Federation of Asokasta is a massive, safe nation, ruled by President Simon Chan with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, sprawling nuclear power plants, and national health service. The compassionate population of 2.686 billion Asokastans 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Lebeira. The average income tax rate is 92.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Asokastan economy, worth 396 trillion Crings a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 147,596 Crings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Drug deals return to the streets as legions of undercover officers stalk the dark web, small children are learning a lot of new words from a teacher with Tourette Syndrome, police frequently raid drugstores in search of contraband bottles of New Spice aftershave, and anti-government political posters adorn every building like wallpaper. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Asokasta's national animal is the Tortis, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Asokasta is ranked 5,656th in the world and 3rd in NATO 2022 for Safest, scoring 129.31 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
