The Republic of Asios Vast is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Asios I with an even hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, compulsory military service, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 3.568 billion Asiosians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Asios City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Asios Vastian economy, worth 748 trillion Asiosian pesos a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 209,762 Asiosian pesos, with the richest citizens earning 6.5 times as much as the poorest.

Government officials sit helplessly as they are labelled 'Pompous Womples' by celebrities, young girls and senior citizens alike can be spotted wearing colourful short shorts, Blackacrean security services are wondering why Asios I is so fond of the numbers 6, 7 and 9, and families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Asios Vast's national animal is the lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Asios Vast is ranked 182,126^th in the world and 794^th in Europeia for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 313.99 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
