The Grand Duchy of Calangute is a massive, cultured nation, notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.106 billion Calanguteans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small government prioritizes Administration, with Education, Healthcare, and Defense also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of City of Frequent Flyers. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.9%.

The all-consuming Calangutean economy, worth 113 trillion Dohas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 102,188 Dohas, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 429,064 per year while the poor average 15,816, a ratio of 27.1 to 1.

The government spends twice as much reclaiming lost settlements from the sea as it could've on coastal defences, political speeches that drill deep into bureaucratic fine detail could be said to be a little boring, camera crews have accompanied conscripted dancers to film 'Marching On Ice', and police officers have been re-kitted with designer uniforms and gold-plated handcuffs. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Calangute's national animal is the diesel, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Calangute is ranked 214,205th in the world and 53rd in Wysteria for Most Valuable International Artwork, with zero Bank.
