The Republic of Castilloe is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Harv Core with a fair hand, and notable for its smutty television, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 1.287 billion Castilloeans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Anclona. The average income tax rate is 59.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Castilloean economy, worth 130 trillion Crowns a year, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 101,781 Crowns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The roads are notorious throughout the region for their peril, enemy governments seem especially interested in Castilloe's election cycle, no one believes anything until it has been strenuously tested and peer-reviewed, and at least 1% of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs budget goes to Harv Core's wardrobe. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Castilloe's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Castilloe is ranked 260,046^th in the world and 10,912^th in Lazarus for Most Extreme, scoring 9.32 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
