The Republic of Catel Sago is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Leander Washin with an iron fist, and renowned for its closed borders, ritual sacrifices, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.286 billion Catel Sagoans 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 government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Flanela. The average income tax rate is 96.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Catel Sagoan economy, worth a remarkable 1,319 trillion Cartéis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 307,794 Cartéis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Families burn Leander Washin's latest official photograph to keep warm, a favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts, whenever pilots have to bail out the government bails out their company, and casino tax breaks are even bigger than their jackpots. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Catel Sago's national animal is the Tigre de bengala, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catan.

Catel Sago is ranked 68,048th in the world and 1,001st in The North Pacific for Most Stationary, with 695.9248671078 days.
