The League of Kalban is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 21.256 billion Kalbanians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.2%.

The very strong Kalbanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,289 trillion peras a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 60,654 peras, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 223,198 per year while the poor average 11,647, a ratio of 19.2 to 1.

Voting is compulsory, employers may fire workers without giving any reason, all tariffs have been abolished, and Leader has decreed that one must think of cheese upon reading the word mouse (Kalban has found 1 easter egg). Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Kalban's national animal is the sea turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Kalban is ranked 141,478^th in the world and 3^rd in Dabble Zealous Oscar Crimson for Most Patriotic, with 12.72 flags saluted per person per day.
