The Republic of Calamor is a small, genial nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 23 million Calamorians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 15.7%.

The very strong Calamorian economy, worth 1.42 trillion Moris a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Soda Sales. Average income is 61,619 Moris, with the richest citizens earning 7.9 times as much as the poorest.

All telephone traffic is monitored for 'national security reasons', the treehouse in Brown Bear Park is the tallest building in Calamor, residents of ageing concrete tower blocks have vital renovation work stopped by Brutalism enthusiasts, and Calamor has been recently classified as an international menace after 'liberating' several nearby territories. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Calamor's national animal is the Brown Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Calamor is ranked 122,833^rd in the world and 128^th in Aesica for Highest Average Incomes, with 61,619.64 Standard Monetary Units.
