The Republic of Asantia is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Adam Rila with an even hand, and notable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 24.367 billion Asantians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Markador. The average income tax rate is 71.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Asantian economy, worth a remarkable 2,654 trillion Bits a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 108,954 Bits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Courses on ornithology and apiology are surprisingly popular, rumour has it Adam Rila needs a calculator to multiply ten by ten, libraries are replacing history books and classic novels with technical manuals and trades directories to match the nation's changing demands, and mosh pits are a common phenomenon in Adam Rila's political rallies. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Asantia's national animal is the River Dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Christianity.

Asantia is ranked 10,590^th in the world and 1^st in Beastopia for Most Cultured, scoring 111 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
