The Matriarchy of Counselor Casey is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Kier Eagan with a fair hand, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, smutty television, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 6.038 billion Lumon Employeeses have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Education, although Industry, Defense, and Administration are also considered important, while Law & Order and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lumon City. The average income tax rate is 96.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Counselor Caseyian economy, worth a remarkable 3,090 trillion Dollars 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 Information Technology, Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. 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 511,871 Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 9.8 times as much as the poorest.

The standardised national curriculum requires that all-male classes be taught why they have periods, good-looking soldier boys have celebrity status amongst the nation's homosexuals, cheese lovers have a case of the bleus, and doctors ask for written consent before making eye contact with patients. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Counselor Casey's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Atheism.

Counselor Casey is ranked 339,699th in the world and 125th in Goddess White for Lowest Crime Rates, with 5.91 law-abiding acts per hour.
