The Republic of The Kallandikonk is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Jonathan with an even hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, sprawling nuclear power plants, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 2.126 billion Kallandikonkians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 69.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Kallandikonkian economy, worth 146 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 68,840 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians who misplace decimal points on expense reports are fired for gross incompetence, snap elections are called whenever there's a chance to increase Jonathan's majority, the nation is regarded as a paragon of democracy, and bike rage is all the rage. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Kallandikonk's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Lutheran.

The Kallandikonk is ranked 125,913^th in the world and 6,155^th in The North Pacific for Largest Mining Sector, scoring -7.35 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
