The State of Cassatt is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its complete lack of public education, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 31.537 billion Cassattians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Westminster. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.6%.

The very strong Cassattian economy, worth 964 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Trout Farming, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 30,597 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 208,023 per year while the poor average 1,644, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Voting is voluntary and Cassatt has designated Westminster as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Cassatt's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Cassatt is ranked 276,023^rd in the world and 1^st in Middle East and the Mediterranean for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -3.16 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
