The Kingdom of Radicaster is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Dritim II with an iron fist, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, ban on automobiles, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 15.33 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 Industry, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bettertopia City. The average income tax rate is 76.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Radicastrian economy, worth a remarkable 7,548 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 492,432 stonks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Vacationing Radicastrians expect to be treated as royalty, the Radicastrian delegation to the World Assembly is having a hard time convincing people that international law will "pay for itself somehow...", Radicaster is increasingly belligerent on the international stage, and doctors prescribe medicines but they rarely dispense hope or compassion. 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 fighter jet, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Linism.

Radicaster is ranked 12,889th in the world and 547th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 96.81 law-abiding acts per hour.
