The Kingdom of San Calia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Salvatore DeCel with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 11.432 billion San Calians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, well-organized morass — is primarily concerned with Healthcare, although Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Solana Beach. The average income tax rate is 75.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The San Calian economy, worth 493 trillion Cali Coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Average income is 43,210 Cali Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's youth would rather watch paint dry than the news, rumor has it that Salvatore DeCel has won three lotteries in a row, crackheads chase drug-loaded drones in hopes of a lucky drop, and government officials stay up all night in flame wars with their constituents. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. San Calia's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

San Calia is ranked 273,447th in the world and 138th in Anteria for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -9.85 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
