The People's Republic of Cale Sta is a very large, safe nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 338 million Calestanians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government prioritizes Administration, although Welfare, Law & Order, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality is ignored. The average income tax rate is 53.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Cale Stan economy, worth 10.6 trillion cales a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Furniture Restoration, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 31,491 cales, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Games of cops and robbers typically end in at least one fatal shooting, in the mighty jungle the lion once again sleeps tonight, several inches are being added to first class seating, and airship use has soared while property values beneath their routes have plummeted. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cale Sta's national animal is the unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Cale Sta is ranked 117,523^rd in the world and 41^st in Declansburg for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,825.71 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
