The Internet in Cartadania was developed based on technological principles established with the various global networks originating in Caphiria, as well as the various systems in development across Cartadania itself. The federal government placed a lot of value on the speed at which an internet system could relay messages and commands, especially in terms of national defense, thus various departments reallocated a portion of their budget to the Public Utilities Commission for buildout of the internet system early in its infancy.
Today, about 356 million people in Cartadania (approximately 95% of the population) use the internet, and the country has one of the world's fastest average internet connection speeds, with average download speeds of around 235.8 Mbit/s for fixed broadband connections and 104.4 Mbit/s for mobile (cellular only) connections. Currently, the PUC and ISPs are rapidly rolling out 1Gbit/s connections or 1,024 Mbit/s. The government has established policies and programs that facilitate the rapid expansion and use of broadband across the country and all of its areas, Lotoa and Solemia included. Approximately 96.1% of Cartadania's population owns a smartphone as well, making the adoption rate of technology one of the highest in the world.
Internet top-level domain names specific to Cartadania include .ca, .lt (Lotoa), and .sl (Solemia). Many Cartadania-based organizations and individuals, however, use generic top-level domains, such as .com, .net, .org, .name, etc.
