The Most Serene Republic of Kallassius is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Avery Athainion with a fair hand, and notable for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.822 billion Kallassians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Celhaveniir. The average income tax rate is 78.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Kallassian economy, worth 110 trillion Flowers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. Average income is 60,725 Flowers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Social networking sites have discussion groups devoted to planning terrorist attacks, the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, employers are finding it hard to screen candidates now that everyone gets A grades in their exams, and students are wary of colorfully decorated new teachers with names like Professor Pipsqueak. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kallassius's national animal is the Kallassian White Dove, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Kallassius is ranked 22,139^th in the world and 728^th in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 6,741.66 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
