The Republic of Kalinigrade is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its daily referendums, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 754 million Kalinigradeans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bagrationovsk. The average income tax rate is 67.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Kalinigradean economy, worth 47.1 trillion złoties a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Trout Farming, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 62,465 złoties, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Modelling agencies send their clients to work in nursing homes, corporate lawyers are joyfully combing through the new tax code for any new loopholes for their clients, bars are packed at all hours, and the new hit series "Kalinigrade's Got Trauma" has corporate executives fleeing the country. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kalinigrade's national animal is the Badger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kalinigrade is ranked 28,035^th in the world and 1,436^th in The North Pacific for Most Popular Tourist Destinations, with 1,233.37 Tourists Per Hour.
