Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Free Land of Saint Kalina is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Chieftainess Morgana Eire with an even hand, and renowned for its hatred of cheese. Its compassionate population of 2.541 billion enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Social Equality, Education, and Commerce. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Myrrha. The average income tax rate is 68%, and even higher for the wealthy. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

Urban high-volume mailers now receive their mail via chauffeur-driven limousines, religious figures have been banned from public holidays to make them more multicultural, eminent domain has been abolished, and the nation's youth is held blameless for all crimes. Crime is relatively low. Saint Kalina's national animal is the tawny owl, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the kuna.

Saint Kalina is ranked 302nd in the Pacific and 11,789th in the world for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 60 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
