The Divine Island Kingdom of Aschente is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by King Atticus with an iron fist, and notable for its soft-spoken computers, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 16.448 billion Aschenteans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stormblade City. The average income tax rate is 64.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Aschentean economy, worth a remarkable 2,208 trillion Rubies 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 Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 134,293 Rubies, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Worried-looking neonatal nurses are being deployed in place of SWAT teams during dangerous drug busts, small patches of desolate land across the world are part of Aschentean sovereign territory, soldiers on first dates introduce themselves only by their ranks and serial numbers, and the Aschentean football team for the Maxxmas ceasefire consists only of Intelligence Corps personnel. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aschente's national animal is the Dragon, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Atheism.

Aschente is ranked 178,710th in the world and 549th in 10000 Islands for Most Stationary, with 80.0513723782 days.
