The United Socialist States of Chackotown is a colossal, cultured nation, remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, ban on automobiles, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 2.872 billion Chackotownians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Makhnograd. The average income tax rate is 63.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Chackotownian economy, worth 584 trillion Chackoes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 203,518 Chackoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There's nothing more gay than bleeding for your nation, high school band practice is often crashed by technicolor-clad ravers, skin-tone prom dresses are more unpopular than ever, and the nation's atlases tend to go out of date every few weeks. Crime is totally unknown. Chackotown's national animal is the Volnyak Wolf, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Chackotown is ranked 298,004^th in the world and 543^rd in Starlight for Fattest Citizens, with 4.96 Obesity Rate.
