The Federal Goverment of Asfar is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Grand Regent Zarek with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.047 billion 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, although Administration, Education, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Akastran. The average income tax rate is 35.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Asfarian economy, worth 101 trillion Haks a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. Average income is 97,355 Haks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Lifeguards are stationed on the streets during rainstorms, well-groomed vagrants are seen holding cardboard signs reading "please help -- 45 million Haks in debt", the government is spending serious cheddar protecting sewer rats, and international terrorists often get their weapons supply in Asfar. 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 101,747^th in the world and 154^th in Fifth Empire for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 2,603.04 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
