The Kingdom of Kaloiansice is a large, genial nation, renowned for its burgeoning lion population. The hard-working, democratic population of 56 million Kaloiansiceans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 33.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Kaloiansicean economy, worth 2.15 trillion crowns a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 38,429 crowns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

A well-funded social safety net protects the unfortunate, the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, and citizens are encouraged to report friends, family members or co-workers who seem depressed to the government for "counselling". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kaloiansice's national animal is the lion, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Kaloiansice is ranked 272,717^th in the world and 6,085^th in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -54.31 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
