The United Federation of Casscata is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Trash Panda with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, free-roaming dinosaurs, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, hard-working population of 7.572 billion Casscatians 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 Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Scata. The average income tax rate is 96.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Casscatian economy, worth a remarkable 1,280 trillion Casscatan Dollars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 169,077 Casscatan Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Genetic research is facing major headwinds, finders keepers is the law of the land, it is cheaper to die in the wilderness than to survive, and grandiose stage parents insist superyachts and private cinemas are children's basic needs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Casscata's national animal is the Wombat, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Faith.

Casscata is ranked 3,797^th in the world and 153^rd in The North Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 9,413.67 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
