The Allied States of Ahdarastan is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its burgeoning cephelopod population. Its hard-nosed population of 5 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Social Welfare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 28%, but much higher for the wealthy. A very small private sector is dominated by the Trout Farming industry.
Crime is relatively low. Ahdarastan's national animal is the cephelopod, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the nev.
