The Community of Kal Urr is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Lanelyn Malcolm with an iron fist, and renowned for its unlimited-speed roads, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 4.938 billion Kal Urrians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stedt Boers. The average income tax rate is 68.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kal Urrian economy, worth 750 trillion Beans a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 152,010 Beans, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation is losing its mind(s), apples shaped like baguettes have become a strange new food fad, old cars must undergo mandatory sensitivity training, and the dotted line smells faintly of iron. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kal Urr's national animal is the Long Billed Gooseneck, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kal Urr is ranked 30,227th in the world and 362nd in The Communist Bloc for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 2,656.61 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
