The Shogunate of Sasuya is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Shogun Asakura Yoshisatsu with an even hand, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, smutty television, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 3.073 billion Sasuyanese enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sasuyanopolis. The average income tax rate is 90.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sasuyan economy, worth 569 trillion Imperial doubloons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 185,476 Imperial doubloons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A murderous reputation can revitalise a flagging celebrity career, government theft from poor artists to give to rich allies has been dubbed the "reverse Robin Hood" policy, relations with Dàguó have warmed from frosty to chilly, and the nation's taxpayers pay for foreign governments' extravagances. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sasuya's national animal is the Asakura marlin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Enlightenment.

Sasuya is ranked 247,436th in the world and 1,149th in Europe for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 17,620.29 Standard Monetary Units.
