The Grand Duchy of Asea is a huge, safe nation, notable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 263 million Aseans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, moralistic government prioritizes Defense, with Healthcare, Law & Order, and Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 43.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Asean economy, worth 14.2 trillion SAND DOLLARS a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 54,025 SAND DOLLARS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The armed forces are locked in an expensive and bloody war abroad to stamp out possible terrorists, all citizens are solely referenced by their allocated identity number, the new hit series "Asea's Got Trauma" has corporate executives fleeing the country, and passionate nomination battles are often as intense as general elections. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Asea's national animal is the Narwhal, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Asea is ranked 92,307^th in the world and 7^th in Union of Cavalier States for Safest, scoring 85.47 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
