The Matriarchy of Asteycia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate population of 3.05 billion Asteycians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 71.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but inefficient Asteycian economy, worth 140 trillion Asteycian dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Pizza Delivery, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 46,069 Asteycian dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Beaches are empty as the shark population multiplies exponentially, the entire entry for Asteycia in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the World reads 'mostly harmless', only adults may purchase violent video games, and the Federal Council of Asteycia has been announced as the new Head of State. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Asteycia's national animal is the Puffin, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Asteycia is ranked 234,799th in the world and 761st in The Communist Bloc for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -6.16 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
