Overview • Factbook • Dispatches • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Second Federal Republic of Kaliuvat is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Supreme Chancellor Darth Ivanov with a fair hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 6.763 billion Kaliuvatians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Anduril. The average income tax rate is 99.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Kaliuvatian economy, worth a remarkable 2,052 trillion Gelds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 303,546 Gelds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It can be a real jungle in a modern courtroom, high-tech infantry rifles automatically reload when the soldier shoots outside the screen of their helmet HUD, gun-wielding criminals always wear appropriate eye and ear protection, and party leaders rely on horoscopes to create "ticket balance". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kaliuvat's national animal is the Dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Church of Kaliuvat.

Kaliuvat is ranked 292,044^th in the world and 4,203^rd in the Pacific for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 1,821.28 Standard Monetary Units.
