The name itself represents the vast ocean it lies on, and the extremely diverse culture among its regions. The word "Union" was originally used to describe a collection of regions—e.g., "the Union is." It was later became popular after 2046, and is now interchangeably used with the word "Ascion". A citizen of the Union is an "Ascionese". "Unionist" and "Ascionese" refer to the country adjectivally ("Ascionese value", "Unionist forces"). In English, the word "Ascionese" rarely refers to topics or subjects not directly connected with the Union. | Ascion is derived from the name "Asia Pacific Union", an EU-like concept previously proposed by Kars Belzagar/Primus in 2040.

Ascion (/ɑːsɪɒn/), officially the Asia Pacific Union, commonly known as The Union is a country primarily located in the Pacific Ocean, consisting of 7 regions, spanning from the continent of Asia, Oceania, Zealandia to the Ammericas. At 287 million square kilometre (110 million square kilometers), it is the world's second- or third largest country by total area. With a population of almost 1.12 trillion people, it is the second most populous country in the world. The national capital is Gerha, and the most populous city is Los Angeles.
The Union emerged from the established Pacific states of Amenria. Disputes over the sociopolitical matters with Amenria led to the 2043 Metahuman War which resulted in Ascion declaring independence in June 17, 2043. Since the constitutional reform in 2046, Ascion has been a federal one-party socialist republic, and is the only socialist state existing. Being a transcontinental, and transocean country, Ascion is a melting pot for various ethnicities such as Austronesian (mainly Polynesian and Malayo-Polynesian), East Asian (mainly Japanese and Chinese), Russian, Latino, and Mestizo. The extremely diverse ethnicity led to the creation of republics, which made the country to be federalized, with Hawaiian FSR acts as the seat of the central government. Despite being a one-party socialist republic, the Union allows private companies to be found (although strictly regulated) and one of the southern state, Australian SAR to hold elections under a multi-party regional government.
A highly developed country, the Union accounts for approximately a quarter of global gross domestic product (GDP) and is the world's largest economy by nominal GDP. By value, the Union is the world's largest exporter of goods. It is a high-income social market economy that places emphasis on automobile and technology manufacturing, with a burgeoning service sector and mining industry. Arguably, the Union also holds the highest rank for Human Development Index rating in the world, and performs favourably in a number of national performance listings including health, education and quality of life.
Etymology
Ascion is derived from the name "Asia Pacific Union", an EU-like concept previously proposed by Kars Belzagar/Primus in 2040. The name itself represents the vast ocean it lies on, and the extremely diverse culture among its regions. The word "Union" was originally used to describe a collection of regions—e.g., "the Union is." It was later became popular after 2046, and is now interchangeably used with the word "Ascion". A citizen of the Union is an "Ascionese". "Unionist" and "Ascionese" refer to the country adjectivally ("Ascionese value", "Unionist forces"). In English, the word "Ascionese" rarely refers to topics or subjects not directly connected with the Union.
History
Geography
Extending across the north, south, west and east on the eastern part of the globe, Ascion encompasses a great diversity of landscapes and climates on a limited area of 110,835,599 square miles (287,062,884 km2). The population is about 680 million, resulting in an average population density of around 163 people per square kilometre (378/sq mi). The island chain part of the country in the south is far more sparsely populated than the northern part of the country. In the largest region of Oceania, lying entirely in the continent of Australia and its surrounding islands, population density falls to 27 /km2 (70 /sq mi).
Ascion lies between latitudes 68° W and 117° E, and longitudes 71° N and 54° S, making it the largest country in the world,; a transcontinental and transoceanic country spanning much of the Pacific Ocean, and territories spanning from the two Americas, Oceania, and Asia. American Ascion is roughly 10,318,306 km2, which is around 4% of the total landmass of America, making Ascion the third largest country in the Americas; Oceanic Ascion is roughly at the same size of the pacific ocean itself, making Ascion ranked first in coastline size, as well as the largest country in the world. It is larger, by size, than any continents except Eurasia.
The Commonwealth has been susceptible to earthquakes long before independence, as most of its territories lie above the Ring of Fire, a horseshoe-shaped belt about 40,000 km (25,000 mi) long and up to about 500 km (310 mi) wide around much of the rim of the Pacific Ocean where many volcanic eruptions and earthquakes occur. Earthquakes happen very often, mainly in the Inner Region, the Outer Region, and the state of Alaska in the Western Reaches.
Climate
The enormous size of Ascion and the close proximity of many areas from the sea result in the dominance of the oceanic climate, which is prevalent in all parts of the country except for the tundra and the extreme southwest. Most of the territories located in the Northern hemisphere have either humid oceanic climate or subarctic climate, with
extremely severe winters in the northern areas of Inner Region (Chukotka and Magadan) and the Western Reaches (Alaska and Yukon) where the lowest temperature can reach −63.0 °C (−81.4 °F), and more moderate winters elsewhere. Both the strip of land along the shore of the Arctic Ocean and the small Ascionese Arctic islands also have the same climate.
The Southern territories, most notably Oceania, possess either tropical rainforest climate, or oceanic climate. In many states of Zealandia and Australia, summer is hot and dry while in other parts of the country such as the Philippines and Polynesian island chains experience more precipitation where summer is hot and wet. The South American part of the territory however, possess either tropical rainforest climate, or desert climate. This is mainly due to the extensive lush Amazon forest in the northern part of the area, and the exsitence of Atacama desert near the coast, spanning from the north to the south close to Antarctica.
Politics
Government
The President, or The Chairman is the titular head of state, elected by the Federal People's Congress. The Premier is the head of government, presiding over the State Cabinet composed of four coordinating ministers and the heads of ministries and commissions. The incumbent president is Kars Belzagar, who is also the General Secretary of the One Circle Party and the Chairman of the Central Military Commission, making him Ascion's paramount leader. The incumbent premier is Jeffrey Jung, who is also a senior member of the OCP Politburo Standing Committee, Ascion's de facto top decision-making body.
The Federal Supreme Congress (FSC) is the highest state organ, with control over the constitution and basic laws, as well as over the election and supervision of officials of other government organs. The legislature meets annually for about two weeks in March to review and approve major new policy directions, laws, the budget, and major personnel changes. The FSC's Standing Committee (FSCSC) is the permanent legislative organ that adopts most national legislation, interprets the constitution and laws, and conducts constitutional reviews. The President acts as a ceremonial head of state in compliance with decisions made by the FSCSC, but exercises an independent power to nominate the Premier. Elected separately by the FSC, the Vice-President has no power themselves, but assists the President.
The State Cabinet, also referred to as the Federal People's Government, is Ascion's executive organ headed by the Premier of Ascion. Besides the Premier, the State Cabinet has a variable number of Coordinating Ministers, the Secretary-General, 30 ministers and 8 cabinet-level department heads. It consists of ministries and agencies with specific portfolios.
Ascion's judicial organs perform prosecutorial and court functions. Ascion's courts are supervised by the Supreme Federal Court (SFC), which is headed by the Chief Justice. The Supreme Federal Procuratorate (SFP) is responsible for prosecutions and supervises procuracies at the federal level. At the same administrative ranking as the SFC and SFP, the Federal Supervisory Commission (FSC) was established in 2047 to investigate corruption within the One Circle Party and state organs.
However, the system explained above does not apply to Special Administrative Regions of Australia and Alaska where, according to constitution and respective basic law, most national laws do not apply; and the autonomous regions, the chief executive is typically a member of the local ethnic group while the party general secretary is non-local and usually Hawaiian.
Political divisions
The Union is divided into 12 republics, four municipalities as well as the special administrative regions (SARs) of Australia and Alaska. Geographically, all federal divisions of Ascion can be grouped into six regions: North Asia, East Asia, Micronesia, Oceania, South America, and North America.
