The Kingdom of Kalance is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 14.337 billion Kalanceans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.0%.

The thriving Kalancean economy, worth 846 trillion Deneroes a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. Average income is 59,077 Deneroes, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 209,114 per year while the poor average 12,050, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Kalance's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kalance is ranked 96,031^st in the world and 1^st in Democratic Union of Assembled States for Highest Food Quality, scoring 23.84 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
