The Empire of Castilistan is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by General Admiral John the Great with an iron fist, and renowned for its frequent executions, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 5.43 billion Castilistanians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vincula City. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Castilistanian economy, worth 819 trillion Castilistanian Rubles a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 151,005 Castilistanian Rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government expresses surprisingly intense opinions on the use of whip pans, nobody likes bad boys any more, families consisting of more than three people are forced to split up, and men who wear pink are seen as dangerously unmanly. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Castilistan's national animal is the Bear, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Castilistan is ranked 135,545th in the world and 4th in Aevum Interventu for Most Stationary, with 234.42590552288 days.
