The Terrible swift sword of AS-1 is a gargantuan, genial nation, remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, avant-garde cinema, and compulsory gun ownership. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 17.892 billion AS-1ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 41.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong AS-1ian economy, worth 969 trillion $$s a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 54,177 $$s, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Orthopaedics patients often have a bounce in their step, guide dogs for the blind have been seen using government websites, gun ownership is compulsory, and the term cold case has taken on a very literal meaning. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. AS-1's national animal is the laughing swordfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

AS-1 is ranked 5,778th in the world and 1st in Adriatic Sea for Most Stationary, with 2,999.66474688 days.
