The Rogue Nation of Kalmarth is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Leader with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, ubiquitous missile silos, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 30.804 billion Kalmarthians 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 tiny, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Education also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valhalla. The average income tax rate is 1.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kalmarthian economy, worth a remarkable 7,847 trillion Dong a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 254,742 Dong, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

National park visitors are reporting a rash of poison ivy sightings, manufacturers of biodegradable plastics have to wait for months to show evidence of organic decomposition, the default state for Kalmarth is default, and Leader shot first. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. Kalmarth's national animal is the Puma, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Kalmarth is ranked 2,077th in the world and 2nd in Eladen for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 8,207 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
