The Parliamentary Republic of Chasia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Prime Minister Calvin Bishop with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 26.295 billion Chasians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, corrupt, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Seneca. The average income tax rate is 22.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Chasian economy, worth an astonishing 12,832 trillion kronols a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 488,019 kronols, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

School nurse's offices feature full-service operating suites, people believe that if you teach a man to fish he won't buy fish from you any more, the tinfoil-hat crowd also recommend tinfoil wallets, and some achieve retirement and some have retirement thrust upon them. Crime is totally unknown. Chasia's national animal is the golden masked owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Chasia is ranked 8,018^th in the world and 27^th in The Western Isles for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 7,805.26 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
