The Parliamentary Gold of Northern Cagas is a massive, safe nation, ruled by The Grand Parliament with a fair hand, and notable for its national health service, ban on automobiles, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.505 billion Northern Cagasians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nordin. The average income tax rate is 81.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Northern Cagasian economy, worth 274 trillion E-Sagons a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 109,396 E-Sagons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Economists have been named Invertebrates of the Year, power stations shutting down at night has made bedtime reading tricky, muggers are complimented on their enterprising spirit, and youth rights demonstrations often end in vicious snowball fights. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Northern Cagas's national animal is the Maine Coon Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Northern Cagas is ranked 11,491^st in the world and 25^th in The Kodiak Republic for Highest Food Quality, scoring 151.82 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
