The Federal Republic of Kelaresia is a very large, genial nation, notable for its state-planned economy, frequent executions, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 491 million Kelaresians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stepanov. The average income tax rate is 66.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Kelaresian economy, worth 10.3 trillion velmiras a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 20,915 velmiras, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sullen teenagers in bright orange 'community payback' onesies can be seen picking litter at the roadside, military strategists are questioning the wisdom of subsidizing the economies of sworn enemies, the nation's politicians are known more for the internet memes they spawn than any of their accomplishments, and Kelaresia has designated Stepanov as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kelaresia's national animal is the starling, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kelaresia is ranked 288,922^nd in the world and 596^th in The Leftist Assembly for Most Developed, scoring 48.02 on the Human Development Index.
