The Ginseng Strip 2002 of Baja Calivada is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Jeane Santángel with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 6.12 billion Californian enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sacramento. The average income tax rate is 81.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Californian economy, worth 713 trillion Cali Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 116,664 Cali Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Offering a builder a cup of tea is a legal minefield, the "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The Sacramento Times is sold out, a third of Californian are e-certified CEOs, and five-year-olds who refuse to line up on command get gold stars. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Baja Calivada's national animal is the Tupla, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Scientology.

Baja Calivada is ranked 147,656^th in the world and 3,252^nd in The North Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 3.35 kickbacks per hour.
