The Matriarchy of Kalimport is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Grand Precept with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, free-roaming dinosaurs, and national health service. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 6.2 billion Kalimportians 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 large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kalimport City. The average income tax rate is 91.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kalimportian economy, worth a remarkable 1,131 trillion Dewgongs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an impressive 182,449 Dewgongs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The phrase 'spreading like wildfire' is no longer in the public lexicon, every day has been a surprise since weather reporters turned to consulting ancient totems for their seven-day forecasts, photographers can be found hiding behind the curtains in Grand Precept's bedroom, and Kalimportian watches list strained wrists as a common side effect. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kalimport's national animal is the Golden Opera, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Logic and Reason.

Kalimport is ranked 8,732^nd in the world and 144^th in 10000 Islands for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 11,904.51 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
