Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Republic of Cassiopeia 044 is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its enslaved workforce, frequent executions, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 5.068 billion Cassiopeia 044ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 48.8%.

The all-consuming Cassiopeia 044ian economy, worth 425 trillion pounds a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 83,984 pounds, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

Politicians bribe ten-year-old geniuses to sit their aptitude tests, small children are learning a lot of new words from a teacher with Tourette Syndrome, the Cassiopeia 044 City Pride Parade's head banner explains how unionizing is heteronormative, and it's considered a civil right to be allowed to neglect and mistreat your own children. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cassiopeia 044's national animal is the beaver, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Cassiopeia 044 is ranked 51,917^th in the world and 3,010^th in Osiris for Most Cultured, scoring 72 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
