The Grand Card Collector Nation of Empire of Caldrasa is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Emperor Cal Anacreoni with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 1.337 billion Caldrasi are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.
The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Caldrazia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.4%.
The frighteningly efficient Caldrasian economy, worth 239 trillion Cards a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 179,204 Cards, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,437,501 per year while the poor average 5,171, a ratio of 278 to 1.
Students spend the school year learning how great the education system is, nano-Cats are the current fad sweeping the nation, scenic mountain valleys are flooded with water as damming projects get underway, and infantry are nicknamed "mushrooms" because they get fed crap and are left in the dark. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Empire of Caldrasa's national animal is the Cat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Bahamuthism.
Empire of Caldrasa is ranked 309,059th in the world and 1,259th in Europeia for Most Beautiful Environments, with 3.51 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
