The Third Social Alliance of Kyldellian Berben is a gargantuan, cultured nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and unlimited-speed roads. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 22.674 billion Kyldellians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Greenvill City. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Kyldellian economy, worth an astonishing 10,814 trillion Rubies a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 476,957 Rubies, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, old folks reminisce about the last time someone was acquitted of a crime, the breathalyser pledge is a traditional part of marriages in Kyldellian Berben, and elementary school students are required to master Bach's Chaconne in D before graduation. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kyldellian Berben's national animal is the Monster, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Morvolox.

Kyldellian Berben is ranked 199^th in the world and 6^th in Kylden for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 1,473.22 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
