The Federated Communes of Kalmykhia is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by General Secretary with an iron fist, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, humorless population of 37.811 billion Kalmykhians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kalmykhia City. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Kalmykhian economy, worth an astonishing 12,199 trillion kalmykh roubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 322,637 kalmykh roubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sales of disinfectant wipes have skyrocketed, the "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The Kalmykhia City Times is sold out, General Secretary's office has a newly installed Max-Man arcade game programmed by a 5th-grader, and the public are free to vote for whomever the government wants in office. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kalmykhia's national animal is the mink, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Kalmykhia is ranked 245,367^th in the world and 259^th in The Internationale for Most Armed, with 0.08 Weapons Per Person.
