The Federal Republic of Askelewi is a huge, safe nation, notable for its burgeoning Brown Hawk population. The democratic population of 294 million Askelewians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 34.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Askelewian economy, worth 11.1 trillion Asketian Tumis a year, is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Pizza Delivery, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 37,888 Asketian Tumis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Askelewi's national animal is the Brown Hawk.

Askelewi is ranked 167,793^rd in the world and 35^th in Northern Utopia for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,065.24 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
