The Kingdom of Calicov is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Jurich Von Licenstein IV with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed population of 1.449 billion Calicovians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, with Administration, Education, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while International Aid receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Calconiea Prime. The average income tax rate is 75.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Calicovian economy, worth 182 trillion Calconiean Rupies a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 126,076 Calconiean Rupies, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Youth rights demonstrations often end in vicious snowball fights, foreigners must sell an arm and a leg to afford surgery in Calicov, mechanics are often exhausted by their work, and citizens are constantly disappointed to find their nuisance neighbours are still alive. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Calicov's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Neko.

Calicov is ranked 46,901^st in the world and 245^th in Europe for Most Corrupt Governments, with 43.82 kickbacks per hour.
