The Federal Republic of Nasao is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by President Camille Brise with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, zero percent divorce rate, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The compassionate, devout population of 9.392 billion Nasaoans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yaninford City. The average income tax rate is 84.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Nasaoan economy, worth 828 trillion Federal Credits a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 88,204 Federal Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Pranking is an art form, citizens ask "how many crooks could a nunchuck hook if a nun had nunchucks too?", feeling like a winner comes at a price, and body doubles and armed bodyguards escort witnesses to and from courtrooms. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nasao's national animal is the White Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Nasaoian Reformed Church.

Nasao is ranked 262,449^th in the world and 3,740^th in The North Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -6.65 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
