The Federalis Imperium of Astares Amauricanum is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Keisaer Adrean Blachkor with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, daily referendums, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 9.153 billion Astarians 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 government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Education are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Columbia District. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 71.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Astarian economy, worth a remarkable 1,776 trillion Covins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 194,113 Covins, with the richest citizens earning 7.3 times as much as the poorest.

Nobody is allowed to stop the local daycare from reading Nietzsche to pre-schoolers, the police think a properly conducted criminal investigation is a real pain, criminals and college students are taking an interest in the government's new weed-killing program, and conscripts often volunteer for a second tour of duty so they can get a ticket to next year's Army Revue. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Astares Amauricanum's national animal is the Silver Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Astarian Star Polytheism.

Astares Amauricanum is ranked 12,693^rd in the world and 2^nd in Astares Covenant for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 11,371.58 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
