The Free Liberal State of Caalia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Queen Chloe with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, humorless population of 20.573 billion Caalians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eldin. The average income tax rate is 75.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Caalian economy, worth a remarkable 2,828 trillion Darics a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 137,480 Darics, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

'To Regulate And Beyond' is the unofficial motto of the Caalian Space Agency, the military has grudgingly released all top secret information in an effort for greater transparency, it is believed that belligerence is a passing phase foreign leaders will soon outgrow, and the government is a proud sponsor of the National Gaming Association. Crime is totally unknown. Caalia's national animal is the Callian Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Caalia is ranked 14,301^st in the world and 16^th in Wysteria for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,272.49 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
