The Federal Goverment of Asfar is a huge, safe nation, ruled by Grand Regent Zarek with an even hand, and renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, free-roaming dinosaurs, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 914 million Asfarians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and look forward to their next free and open election, to be held on an as-yet unannounced date.

The medium-sized government prioritizes Defense, with Administration, Education, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Akastran. The average income tax rate is 31.3%.

The thriving Asfarian economy, worth 84.3 trillion Haks a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 92,195 Haks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Immigrant herding has become a national pastime, fur coats have become the latest fashion trend, torture is commonly used to extract information from suspected criminals, and fly fishermen are legally forbidden from using electronic lures. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Asfar's national animal is the Leopard, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Asfar is ranked 121,092^nd in the world and 156^th in Fifth Empire for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 635.91 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
