The Republic of Cassiopeia 065 is a massive, genial nation, renowned for its pith helmet sales, enslaved workforce, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 4.598 billion Cassiopeia 065ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 33.2%.
The strong Cassiopeia 065ian economy, worth 246 trillion pesos a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 53,555 pesos, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 176,603 per year while the poor average 12,156, a ratio of 14.5 to 1.

Cassiopeia 065's national animal is the penguin, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.
Cassiopeia 065 is ranked 177,136th in the world and 10,654th in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 61.11 law-abiding acts per hour.
