The United Socialist States of Asgard of Rawls is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate population of 11.46 billion Asgard of Rawlsians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Environment, and Welfare also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alexandria. The average income tax rate is 88.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Asgard of Rawlsian economy, worth 803 trillion Rawls a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Book Publishing. Average income is 70,076 Rawls, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation grinds to a halt on the anniversary of every marginally noteworthy event, government forces are said to be deterred by signs reading "No Spam, Cold Callers or Central Government - Thank You", the government regularly hires contractors to construct high rise apartments, and counselors diagnose their clients with motherboard complexes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Asgard of Rawls's national animal is the Demiguise, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
