The Stratocratic Republic of Cascadian Free State is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by President Elijah Mac Alistair with an iron fist, and renowned for its aversion to nipples, compulsory gun ownership, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 8.895 billion Cascadians 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 prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Olympia. The average income tax rate is 38.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Cascadian Free Statean economy, worth 860 trillion Cascadian Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 96,723 Cascadian Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

The only soporific permitted during sermons is the preacher's voice, President Elijah Mac Alistair is plotting to coup the Pacific (Cascadian Free State has found 1 easter egg), children must be board certified to append "Jr" to their name, and the police have nothing to do with the increasing number of 'disappeared'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cascadian Free State's national animal is the Olympic Marmot, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Reformed Lutheranism.

Cascadian Free State is ranked 49,609th in the world and 3rd in Vatican for Most Extreme, scoring 31.65 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
