The Federation of The Holy Caltro is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by President Boris Nelson with an even hand, and notable for its national health service, zero percent divorce rate, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 5.455 billion Caltroans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Presidia. The average income tax rate is 96.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Holy Caltroan economy, worth a remarkable 1,117 trillion Denars a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 204,807 Denars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Government buildings are being cleansed of anything that might have racist connotations, walls don't have ears, sales of pregnancy testing kits are booming, and scenic mountain valleys are flooded with water as damming projects get underway. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Holy Caltro's national animal is the Caltroan hamagoose, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is The Great Pantheon.

The Holy Caltro is ranked 115,927th in the world and 1,771st in The East Pacific for Most Stationary, with 327.2609711084 days.
