North Castela

Population969 million



The Kingdom of North Castela is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its smutty television, infamous sell-swords, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 969 million North Castelans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, although Healthcare, Administration, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Defense is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hjemlend. The average income tax rate is 46.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The North Castelan economy, worth 47.9 trillion Hvals a year, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 49,397 Hvals, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Conductors wield diamond-encrusted batons to fit in with their freshly gilded surroundings, politicians frequently make unusual poses during speeches in hopes of inspiring the next internet fad, entire provinces are being suppressed for collectively "planning terrorist attacks", and open-casket funerals are avoided at all cost. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. North Castela's national animal is the Whale, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

North Castela is ranked 32,580th in the world and 912th in the South Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 73 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
