The Republic of Greater Kastovia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Anatoli Petroschenko with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 3.328 billion Kastovians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Verdansk. The average income tax rate is 83.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Kastovian economy, worth 267 trillion Kastovian Rubles a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 80,357 Kastovian Rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Billions are being spent on a new island airport, murderers facing life in prison listen to long sermons on positive thinking, religious organizations are being forced to leave the country or pay income taxes like everybody else, and government crews work tirelessly to retake the suburbs from organized packs of raccoons. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Greater Kastovia's national animal is the Siberian Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Greater Kastovia is ranked 58,908^th in the world and 2^nd in Leathercappia for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 4,496.6 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
