The Kingdom of Kalix is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, ban on automobiles, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, humorless population of 49.03 billion Kalixians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Göteborg. The income tax rate is 100%.

The enormous but underdeveloped Kalixian economy, worth a remarkable 5,971 trillion kronors a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 121,786 kronors, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The internal market is thriving, they unpaved paradise and tore up a parking lot (ooh, bop bop bop), the nation operates a "finders-keepers" policy with other nations' citizens, and leisure is a crime in ski towns. Crime is totally unknown. Kalix's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kalix is ranked 331,822^nd in the world and 25^th in The Maritimes for Highest Disposable Incomes, with zero Standard Monetary Units.
