The Ashkatan League of Vulstria is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Chairman Alzarin Metikos with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, otherworldly petting zoo, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 13.682 billion Ashkatans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ashkata. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.6%.

The powerhouse Ashkatan economy, worth a remarkable 1,120 trillion SECS a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 81,907 SECS, with the richest citizens earning 5.9 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are tied down and forced to watch educational videos on empathy, billions of SECS are being blown on orbital weapons development, the government is engaging in an agricultural trade war with Maxtopia, and arbitrary election rules are considered sacrosanct. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. Vulstria's national animal is the Scarab, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Secular.

Vulstria is ranked 140,062nd in the world and 47th in The Galactics Union for Lowest Crime Rates, with 62.12 law-abiding acts per hour.
