The Republic of Ascenia, known as Ascenia or the Federal Republic of Ascenia, is a galactic empire located between the 32nd and 39th Star Belt of the Galaxy. It comprises 28 districts (which are commonly known as provinces), one federal planet capital, and one federal legal capital. Spanning over 250 parsecs, it is the single largest galactic empire by area of inhabited colony. The Republic of Ascenia shares a land border with the Dominion of Psion to the left and the Jehetma Dominion to the right. With a population of over 25 billion, it is the most populous empire of the galaxy. The capital is Sol, and the legal capital is The Citadel, located in the planet of Trefolium.

Ascenia was first colonized in 2104 and became a republic in 2200. Severe disputes with the neighboring Jehetma Dominion led to the triggering of a ten-year war between 2211 and 2221. Ascenia is a federal elective republic and a democracy with three separate branches of government. It is a member of the Galactic Congress, and spends over 20 trillion credits on deterring piracy and strengthening its military force, which is one of the largest in the world.

The Pledge of Allegiance
On my honor and on the behalf of the people of this great Republic, I pledge that I shall defend the citadel of galactic democracy from all enemies, foreign or domestic, until my last breath. I pledge that I shall pay any price, meet any goal, bear any burden, and fight any battle for the goal of liberty for all. Semper Fidelis!
