The Federal Republic of Calahy is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Federal President Caroll Eigen with an iron fist, and notable for its daily referendums, infamous sell-swords, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 2.052 billion Calahians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Darmschtadt. The average income tax rate is 76.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Calahyian economy, worth 344 trillion Marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 168,008 Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians can be seen taking candy from babies, road signs are getting harder to read under layers of knitted woolen cardigans, youth rights demonstrations often end in vicious snowball fights, and cancer rates amongst the richest in society are inexplicably on the rise. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Calahy's national animal is the Double-headed eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Protestantism.

Calahy is ranked 21,960^th in the world and 571^st in The North Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 45.27 flags saluted per person per day.
