The Hi there of Caldrasa is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Cal with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 4.484 billion Caldrasans are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The minute, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order is also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.5%.

The very strong Caldrasan economy, worth 286 trillion Caldras a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Furniture Restoration, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 63,799 Caldras, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 347,343 per year while the poor average 6,018, a ratio of 57.7 to 1.

Caldrasa recently decided against having a capital city, Cal has been self-declared as the Most Supreme Magnificent Overlord of Everything You Ever Saw, the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly, and young girls and senior citizens alike can be spotted wearing colourful short shorts. Crime is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Caldrasa's national animal is the Birb, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Some weird cult i think.

Caldrasa is ranked 147,558^th in the world and 12^th in Trica for Largest Black Market, with 1.19 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
