The State of Cheurs Pliaids is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 40.977 billion Cheurs Pliaidsians 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 minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, with Welfare and Education also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.1%.

The very strong Cheurs Pliaidsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,629 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Pizza Delivery, and Retail. Average income is 39,768 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 270,375 per year while the poor average 2,136, a ratio of 126 to 1.

The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, anti-government web sites are springing up, and Cheurs Pliaids has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Cheurs Pliaids's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Cheurs Pliaids is ranked 265,701^st in the world and 1^st in Sark for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -4.47 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
