The State of Cali Ewing is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its state-planned economy, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The democratic population of 33.46 billion Cali Ewingsites are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 90.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Cali Ewingian economy, worth 529 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Book Publishing industry. Average income is 15,818 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military funding has been stripped back, programmes of questionable content are shown at peak-hours, a major religion has been named as Cali Ewing's national religion, and Cali Ewing has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cali Ewing's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Cali Ewing is ranked 45,332nd in the world and 5th in Malaysia for Most Stationary, with 968.15939426648 days.
