The Kingdom of Kaskalma is a massive, safe nation, ruled by King Charles III with an iron fist, and renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, compulsory military service, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 3.879 billion Kaskalmen 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jorgenstadt. The average income tax rate is 46.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Kaskalman economy, worth 328 trillion Reichmarks a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 84,597 Reichmarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Lumberjacks only use certified eco-friendly chainsaws, wheelchair-enabled paratroopers need access ramps to get onto planes but not off them, Red Cross demand for body bags is rising while sutures go unused, and a proud mining community is considering a rebellion after the Capital officially renamed them 'District XII'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kaskalma's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Christianity.

Kaskalma is ranked 250,364^th in the world and 127^th in The Western Isles for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -7.21 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
