The Republic of Chesque is a tiny, safe nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, otherworldly petting zoo, and compulsory military service. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 14 million Chesqueans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large government prioritizes Spirituality, although Welfare, Defense, and Law & Order are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 39.0%.

The Chesquean economy, worth 633 billion Baocoes a year, is led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 45,274 Baocoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

All major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, sexually-starved male dinosaurs terrorise tourists during weekly breakouts from Mesozoic Park, and the government is seen to favor traditionalist religions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chesque's national animal is the Grey Cat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Chesque is ranked 135,739^th in the world and 12^th in The Charter for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 1,144.16 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
