The Chicness of Chik is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Chic McChique with a fair hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 27.119 billion Chikans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cheapdale. The average income tax rate is 73.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Chikian economy, worth a remarkable 2,248 trillion checks a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 82,901 checks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

It is illegal to distribute Girl Guide Cookies without an advanced food hygiene diploma, politicians frequently make unusual poses during speeches in hopes of inspiring the next internet fad, wounded veterans can only get prosthetics if they agree to become walking billboards for the arms industry, and all you have to do is pray to get into Chik. Crime is relatively low. Chik's national animal is the Chik chicken, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Chikstafariansim.

Chik is ranked 55,862^nd in the world and 2^nd in Freshness for Highest Drug Use, scoring 266.17 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
