The State of Castra Bonnensis is a gargantuan, orderly nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 16.778 billion Castra Bonnensisians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 48.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Castra Bonnensisian economy, worth 116 trillion betales a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Basket Weaving, Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 6,934 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's official head of religious affairs is an atheist, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, citizens who become homeless are immediately executed, and Castra Bonnensis recently decided against having a capital city. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Castra Bonnensis's national animal is the deer.

Castra Bonnensis is ranked 97,072nd in the world and 3rd in Ceylon for Most Primitive, scoring -10 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
