The Holy Cow in Middle of Road of Chicago 9 is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Harry Carry XXII with an even hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, zero percent divorce rate, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 17.336 billion Chicago 9ians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chicago. The average income tax rate is 26.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Chicago 9ian economy, worth 926 trillion cheeborgers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 53,454 cheeborgers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.
Chicago 9 recently hosted the least successful trade negotiations since The Phantom Menace, the world is looking a bit more worldly, movies depict muscle-bound women kicking down a titanium door to carry hysterical men to safety, and weather forecasts are accurate but nobody has the bandwidth to view them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Chicago 9's national animal is the billy goat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is sports.
Chicago 9 is ranked 161,514th in the world and 5th in EPCOT Center 1981 for Most Stationary, with 121.96147055572 days.
