The Republic of Assarak is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, compulsory military service, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 2.886 billion Assarakians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Spirituality, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 32.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Assarakian economy, worth 119 trillion lire a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Tourism. Average income is 41,370 lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Increasing numbers of children in Assarak have different eye and hair color to their supposed fathers, Leader's recent "I have a dream that we will fight them by raking muck on the beaches" speech seems a little derivative to many, crime suspects are forced to submit to blood testing, and it is often said that only Leader could bring down Dàguó. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Assarak's national animal is the panther.

Assarak is ranked 118,358^th in the world and 16^th in Atkalat for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,557.88 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
