The State of Calgariana is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Jasper McVeigh with a fair hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 18.501 billion Calgarianans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 13.3%.

The thriving Calgarianan economy, worth a remarkable 1,092 trillion crowns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Trout Farming. Average income is 59,026 crowns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Anti-government political posters adorn every building like wallpaper, any citizen who cries is immediately assigned a psychiatrist, Jasper McVeigh has just been declared ruler of Calgariana in an international press conference, and Christianity has been named as Calgariana's national religion. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Calgariana's national animal is the jackalope, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

Calgariana is ranked 135,038^th in the world and 10^th in the Columbia River for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 2,115.64 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
