The Republic of Artoria Caster is a mammoth, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and restrictive gun laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 9.829 billion Artoria Casterians enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.

The tiny, moralistic, outspoken government is dominated by the Department of Defense, with Public Transport, Administration, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.3%.

The very strong Artoria Casterian economy, worth 609 trillion bitcoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 61,916 bitcoins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 184,099 per year while the poor average 16,326, a ratio of 11.3 to 1.

Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Artoria Caster's national animal is the crocodile, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

Artoria Caster is ranked 66,650^th in the world and 1^st in Communist England for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring zero on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
