THE INCORPORATED STATES OF KALLISTIKA GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT KALLISTIKA

Kallistika is a medium-sized island nation located to the east of Merciam's largest continent. At present, it also holds territory on the continent itself, which is being used to develop an area of international free trade, as well as being the site of a sizable canal project.

Kallistika is notable as having of the most liberal marketplaces in the region, with what little government exists being mostly focused on acting as a corporate partner to Kallistikan industry rather than a social institution. Most Kallistikan law is based on keeping a free and transparent market place rather than more typical civil affairs.

Internationally, Kallistika is non-interventionist, and generally avoids taking any particular political stance, at least officially. The nation's lack of involvement in any significant external conflicts is a point of pride among the vast majority of citizens. Despite otherwise avoiding involving itself in international affairs, Kallistika maintains active and aggressive economic policies on a regional level, and supports a form of regional unity in regards to economic and military affairs. Perhaps counter-intuitively, Kallistika typically maintains a somewhat adversarial stance in regards to a great deal of regional legislation, seeing the right to national sovereignty and self-determination as the most valuable tenets of international law.
