The Republic of Asweyon is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by President Neadry with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, free-roaming dinosaurs, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, cheerful population of 3.771 billion Asweyonians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 96.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Asweyonian economy, worth 651 trillion guilders a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 172,805 guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Eau de Trashcan has become a wildly popular perfume, abattoirs are struggling with the directive to 'wait until the animal dies of a ripe old age', the path to inner peace is paved with state-mandated punishment, and left-wing militias train children how to properly burn down banks. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Asweyon's national animal is the wolf, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Asweyon is ranked 5,635^th in the world and 1^st in Amaranth for Most Cultured, scoring 149 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
