The Something of Calption is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Some One with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 7.777 billion People are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Education, Industry, and Administration are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Some Place. The average income tax rate is 93.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient A Person economy, worth a remarkable 2,572 trillion Zimbabwe Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 330,831 Zimbabwe Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Reddish-brown is the new black, new mothers can pay for their weekly grocery shop with a bottle of breast milk, only AIs know why the nation is rapidly increasing its semiconductor stockpile, and rabbits are known to spontaneously explode without warning. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Calption's national animal is the Organism, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Some thing.

Calption is ranked 15,099^th in the world and 985^th in Lazarus for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,228.79 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
