The Armed Republic of Casm is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Sir Casm with an even hand, and renowned for its restrictive gun laws. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 6.034 billion are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Defence, with areas such as Social Equality and Social Welfare receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chesm. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 79%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry.

The government regularly hires contractors to construct high rise apartments, an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents, citizens are regularly found digging for treasure in their gardens, and morning coffees are no longer the same since the disappearance of newspapers. Crime is a problem. Casm's national animal is the Dragon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, its national religion is obeyed, and its currency is the Casman.

Casm is ranked 3rd in Renaissance and 22,375th in the world for Most Conservative, scoring 68 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
