The Syndicalist Union of Kalaascovy is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Harry Steel with a fair hand, and notable for its feral children, prohibition of alcohol, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.755 billion Kalaascovi are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Taqorsburg. The average income tax rate is 71.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Kalaascovian economy, worth 590 trillion Dragon Coppers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 124,191 Dragon Coppers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, the KBI Channel Tunnel project is plagued by delays, families are left homeless as entire suburbs are bulldozed on the whim of tribal chiefs, and the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kalaascovy's national animal is the Antarctic Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kalaascovy is ranked 151,479^th in the world and 23^rd in Balugata for Fattest Citizens, with 7.09 Obesity Rate.
