The Republic of Asyllum is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, infamous sell-swords, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 12.487 billion Asyllumians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 75.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Asyllumian economy, worth a remarkable 1,571 trillion Loonies a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is an impressive 125,826 Loonies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Convicted felons are forced into slavery for their crimes, catcalling has been replaced by slut-shaming, Leader's told that love often manifests itself through homicidal four-lettered litanies, and a rolling news ticker tape of disclaimers runs across the bottom of the screen on all TV shows. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Asyllum's national animal is the crocodile, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Asyllum is ranked 169,664^th in the world and 6,228^th in Osiris for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 256.74 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
