The Vizier of Asendavia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Hjalmar XVIII with an iron fist, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, pith helmet sales, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.588 billion Asendavians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Education, Industry, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Strömhärad. The average income tax rate is 95.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Asendavian economy, worth a remarkable 2,529 trillion Jade Nudoes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 294,507 Jade Nudoes, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,492,615 per year while the poor average 32,234, a ratio of 46.3 to 1.

The dessert 'Death by Chocolate' isn't the most lethal dish on the menu, few that venture into government archives are ever seen again, high-tech infantry rifles automatically reload when the soldier shoots outside the screen of their helmet HUD, and ghost regiments exist only on paper. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Asendavia's national animal is the Gyoruna, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Ademarism.

Asendavia is ranked 167,379^th in the world and 6,347^th in The East Pacific for Most Politically Free, scoring 23.71 on the Diebold Election Inking Scale.
