The Queendom of Kaldrbuth is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Lady Ástríðr Vǫlsungrsdóttir-Vinter XI with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 2.9 billion Norses enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hrafnheimr. The average income tax rate is 62.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Kaldrbuthian economy, worth 306 trillion KKrs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Gambling. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 105,656 KKrs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizen radio operators agree that the certification test can open up a world of hertz, concussed Reindeerball players cannot remember their lineup position, a ban on unsolicited cold calling in all forms is in effect, and policy reversals are more often graceful demi-détournés than u-turns. Crime is totally unknown. Kaldrbuth's national animal is the Reindeer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Norse Polytheism.

Kaldrbuth is ranked 155,431^st in the world and 6,291^st in The East Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 180.56 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
