The Republic of Republic of Ash-Land is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President with an even hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 3.98 billion Ash-Landians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ash-land. The average income tax rate is 85.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ash-Landian economy, worth 467 trillion Dollars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 117,372 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Ash-Landian Intelligence Agency relies on internet search engines to know what is happening overseas, defense lawyers suggestively note to juries how flagrantly happy victims were, government buildings are being cleansed of anything that might have racist connotations, and the death penalty has been reintroduced. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Republic of Ash-Land's national animal is the Deer, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Republic of Ash-Land is ranked 287,200^th in the world and 792^nd in 10000 Islands for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.49 kickbacks per hour.
