The People's Republic of Adsala is a large, safe nation, notable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 167 million Adsalans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 68.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Adsalan economy, worth 6.81 trillion reais a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 40,764 reais, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Census workers struggle to account for the rapidly increasing number of citizens to tabulate, children who refuse to share their crayons are arrested, machine-peeled candied grapes come in individual packaging for the busy commuter, and things are looking up for patients accidentally prescribed erectile dysfunction medication. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Adsala's national animal is the giant blood eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Adsala is ranked 59,298^th in the world and 367^th in The Leftist Assembly for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,724.38 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
