The Theocracy of Holy Cascadian Imperium is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Alexander Cornelius David with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, infamous sell-swords, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 3.079 billion Holy Cascadian Imperians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Victoria. The average income tax rate is 70.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Holy Cascadian Imperian economy, worth 487 trillion Bitcoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 158,473 Bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Moles make up an incredible part of the upper crust, Emperor Alexander Cornelius David is described as an everyday person with normal tastes and the usual interests, in coastal waters there are fifteen salvage divers per dead man's chest (yo ho ho), and middle management darts to the playground after board meetings. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Holy Cascadian Imperium's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is The Roman Catholic Church.

Holy Cascadian Imperium is ranked 10,740^th in the world and 34^th in Christians for Most Cultured, scoring 111 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
