The Kingdom of Chalfantia is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by the Grand Duke with an iron fist, and remarkable for its public floggings, sprawling nuclear power plants, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 28.699 billion Chalfantians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The minute government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.3%.

The strong Chalfantian economy, worth a remarkable 1,763 trillion Gold Pounds a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 61,436 Gold Pounds, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.

Children have taken to using semaphore in light of the recent mobile phone ban, billions are being spent on a new island airport, The Grand Duke's mistress is the belle at many state balls, and people believe that if you teach a man to fish he won't buy fish from you any more. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Chalfantia's national animal is the Fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Chalfantia is ranked 125,899^th in the world and 5^th in Enowiden for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 9,658.67 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
