The Kingdom of Radicaster is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Dritim II with an iron fist, and remarkable for its frequent executions, aversion to nipples, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 15.4 billion Radicastrians 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 relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bettertopia City. The average income tax rate is 78.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Radicastrian economy, worth a remarkable 7,678 trillion stonks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 498,615 stonks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Running away is an essential part of the elite forces' hand-to-hand training, the government is well known for declaring war on other countries for suspected slights, childish pranks are no laughing matter, and pedants defending Dritim II observe that psychopaths and sociopaths aren't exactly the same thing. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Radicaster's national animal is the fighter jet, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Linism.

Radicaster is ranked 14,963^rd in the world and 555^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 9,253.7 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
