The Kingdom of Radicaster is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Regent Hyong Sung-Jin with an iron fist, and remarkable for its enslaved workforce, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 20.519 billion Kasterians 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, well-organized government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Law & Order and Industry also on the agenda, while International Aid and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gwangseong. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Kasterian economy, worth an astonishing 12,529 trillion Kasterian won 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 and Information Technology. 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 a breathtaking 610,624 Kasterian won, with the richest citizens earning 7.0 times as much as the poorest.

Weather forecasts regularly cover meteor showers, adults have never outgrown their fear of monsters, soldiers are equipped with multi-million Kasterian won battlesuits, and Kasterian athletes are close to breaking the 2 minute mile and the 16 meter long jump. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Radicaster's national animal is the 152 mm shell, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is atheism.

Radicaster is ranked 313th in the world and 5th in The North Pacific for Highest Average Incomes, with 610,624.71 Standard Monetary Units.
