The Calc is pain of Integrals is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its public floggings, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.727 billion Integralsians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 76.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Integralsian economy, worth 398 trillion Duckcoins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 84,370 Duckcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Aging citizens are celebrating the end of the 'Early Bird War', cars are banned, the bonfire of the old paper records can be seen for miles around Integrals City, and imitation is the sincerest form of felony. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Integrals's national animal is the Duck, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Integrals is ranked 83,275^th in the world and 246^th in Artificial Solar System for Highest Average Incomes, with 84,370.67 Standard Monetary Units.
