The Haunted Islands of The Caeah Ints is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by J Michael Dirge with an iron fist, and renowned for its ritual sacrifices, compulsory military service, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 11.859 billion Intsians 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 prioritizes Administration, although Law & Order, Education, and Defense are also considered important, while Welfare isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dirge. The average income tax rate is 58.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Intsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,314 trillion Epitaphs 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 a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Gambling, and Uranium Mining. 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 impressive 110,838 Epitaphs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Underground copulation clubs have sprung up in major cities, visiting dignitaries make excuses to leave functions early and head to the nearest pub, postcards from Intsian driving test centres are popular souvenirs, and family trees become bare as entire branches are lopped off. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Caeah Ints's national animal is the Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Post Mortemism.

The Caeah Ints is ranked 76,609^th in the world and 1^st in The Eastern Lands for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 3,000.41 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
