The Blessed Kingdom of Custadia is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Holy Emperor Strenst XXIX with an iron fist, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, ubiquitous missile silos, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 13.177 billion Custadians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Education, Healthcare, and Social Policy are also considered important, while Environment and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Krudzt. The average income tax rate is 97.3%.

The strong Custadian economy, worth a remarkable 3,187 trillion Teils a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 241,922 Teils, with the richest citizens earning 5.3 times as much as the poorest.

Minority children find the right answer in school tests is always the most insulting one, baby boys who pick up pink crayons are sent to a psychiatric ward, the nation's soldiers sleep four to a bed in order to use space economically, and the military is researching proton packs and PK-meters to combat "unseen enemy forces". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Custadia's national animal is the Wolf, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Custadia is ranked 194,381^st in the world and 7,015^th in Lazarus for Most Primitive, scoring -304.18 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
