The Commonwealth of Kalaska77 is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its pith helmet sales, vat-grown people, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, cynical population of 2.581 billion Kalaska77ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grandpa Town. The average income tax rate is 73.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Kalaska77ian economy, worth 352 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 a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. 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 136,642 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The military is on a massive recruiting drive in advance of an invasion of Brasilistan, military doctrine says not to open fire until you see the "beady little eyes" of Johnny Foreigner, carpet bombing has decimated Brasilistan's landscape and population, and power to the people comes from the barrel of a gun. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kalaska77's national animal is the panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Kalaska77 is ranked 212,775th in the world and 3,385th in the South Pacific for Most Conservative, scoring 42.83 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
