The Democratic Republic of Chaopia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by The President with a fair hand, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, anti-smoking policies, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 34.945 billion Chaopians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Healthcare, and Social Policy also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chaopia City. The average income tax rate is 93.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Chaopian economy, worth a remarkable 5,947 trillion merls a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 170,188 merls, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

You can touch grass without leaving your computer, the real art was the AI friends we made along the way, frequent flyers are chiseled into statues, and preschoolers outnumber veteran politicians in government. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chaopia's national animal is the emperor penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Chaopia is ranked 14,429^th in the world and 1^st in Discworld for Nudest, with 222 cheeks per square mile.
