Kasperia, is a small Antarctic territory located on the island of Hypernostria. It is part of the Moorland Antarctic Territory (officially part of the Moorland Overseas Territory), a research colony established to conduct scientific studies on the island. Located directly south of Beelandia, the territory is a frozen waste that is inhospitable to most life. The ruins of the Riponian city of Dyvelsten were discovered by the first expedition team who uncovered the ruins of the Kaspar Particle Accelerator there. Efforts to preserve, research and restore the accelerator to functionality led to the creation of the Kaspar Particle Accelerator Laboratory (KPAL). KPAL is a self-sustaining installation with a staff of just over one-thousand employees and military personnel. Kasperia has no permanent population or settlement, and staff at KPAL are transient. Governance is provided from the Commissioner of Beelandia but KPAL is managed by an appointed Director that oversees operations of the facility.
