Hi, Koke! The Drakstadish are familiar with the outside world on a surface level, restricted to what they are taught in government-sponsored schools or government-approved Internet. Current events are largely unknown; they mostly know about history and geography-related topics. It's not exactly dangerous to talk about the outside world, but there isn't much to say. As far as travel, most citizens never leave Drakstaden: the upper class because they don't want to, and the lower classes because they can't afford it.

If Kovacs accesses the illegal connection to the "wider" Internet in Rost headquarters, he will find that other nations have decried the human rights violations in Drakstaden and many have cut off trade until situations improve, but none seem to be attempting to actively do anything. Global governments include democracies and republics, monarchies, and constitutional monarchies. As far as Kovacs can tell, there is no evidence of outside support of the current Drakstaden government, other than tinfoil hat theories he might find on social media.
