The Constitutional Monarchy of Calponia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by King Matthew Hudson with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and ban on automobiles. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 16.407 billion Calponians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wellington. The average income tax rate is 66.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Calponian economy, worth a remarkable 2,809 trillion Dollars a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Retail, Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 171,234 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Animated characters are allowed to stab each other but not hold hands, foreign nations kill migratory animals at random in the hope that Calponia will pay them to stop, selfie stick use is a required Scout badge, and Tesco was recently named as the new national treasurer. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Calponia's national animal is the Dove, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.
Calponia is ranked 259,655th in the world and 29th in New Western Atlantic for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -7.92 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
