The Oppressed Peoples of Calibarn is a mid-sized, orderly nation, renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, compulsory military service, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 50 million Goyims 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 large, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 45.7%.

The sizeable but inefficient Calibarnian economy, worth 2.46 trillion marks a year, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 49,248 marks, with the richest citizens earning 5.3 times as much as the poorest.

Sniffer dogs are trained to follow clouds of fruity-smelling vapor, producers insist that movie stars wear crash helmets in every scene, sexually-starved male dinosaurs terrorise tourists during weekly breakouts from Mesozoic Park, and the banhammer is a standard police sidearm. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Calibarn's national animal is the lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Calibarn is ranked 306,755th in the world and 600th in Council of Asia for Largest Populations, with 50.0 million capita.
