“Pride and Industry”

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

The Republic of Castangsmanaia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Heather with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 8.021 billion Castangsmanaians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Superbia. The average income tax rate is 99.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Castangsmanaian economy, worth a remarkable 1,748 trillion pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 217,952 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Castangsmanaia has one of the largest offshore wind farms in the world, community organizers have given up going door to door because nobody is home, children are brainwashed at a young age to accept "love and peace!" as a way of life, and elevator music has been replaced by thrash metal played at maximum volume. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Castangsmanaia's national animal is the Hellhound, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Castangsmanaia is ranked 2,150^th in the world and 82^nd in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 142.04 law-abiding acts per hour.
