The United Provinces of Caldorado is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Chancellor RFC with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.126 billion Caldoranians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Calvary. The average income tax rate is 65.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Caldoranian economy, worth 157 trillion Cavalis a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 73,910 Cavalis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People who get diabetes can sue donut manufacturers, sex changes are routinely performed at Caldorado's hospitals, the nation's ambassadors often conduct their business in jail cells, and pet loving officers arrest citizens who don't give their dogs enough biscuits. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Caldorado's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Agnostic.

Caldorado is ranked 205,544^th in the world and 525^th in 10000 Islands for Most Primitive, scoring -120.81 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
