The Republic of Caestantstan is a large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and spontaneously combusting cars. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 139 million Caestantstanians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.9%.

The very strong Caestantstanian economy, worth 9.50 trillion kronor a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Book Publishing, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 68,335 kronor, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 219,578 per year while the poor average 16,114, a ratio of 13.6 to 1.

Hedge fund managers are diversifying into herbaceous borders, older citizens lament over the loss of law and order, advertisements for jobs in the sciences run in fashion magazines, and monocled merchants with funny accents are applying for Caestantstanian citizenship in droves. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Caestantstan's national animal is the Cobra, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Caestantstan is ranked 4,831^st in the world and 108^th in The North Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 6,614.86 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
