The Theocracy of Caladraxia is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Dear Leader with an iron fist, and renowned for its triple-decker prams, pith helmet sales, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 22.546 billion Caladraxians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Spirituality also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Caladrax DC. The average income tax rate is 78.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Caladraxian economy, worth a remarkable 9,765 trillion Sigils 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, Uranium Mining, 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 amazing 433,138 Sigils, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Military advisors frequently remind San Vitenzan farmers that they have to pull the pin on a grenade before throwing it, bereaved families are assigned a new housemate the day after the funeral, government theft from poor artists to give to rich allies has been dubbed the "reverse Robin Hood" policy, and no bunny expects the Caladraxian rabbit coalition. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Caladraxia's national animal is the Ice Dragon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Personality Cult.

Caladraxia is ranked 149,058th in the world and 2,822nd in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 165.20383871392 days.
