The People's Republic of Chingistans is a small, orderly nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-working, cynical population of 20 million Chingistansians 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 enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 66.4%.

The strong Chingistansian economy, worth 1.11 trillion Chinggis Silvers a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Pizza Delivery, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 55,359 Chinggis Silvers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.6 times as much as the poorest.

School uniforms are compulsory, half-submerged and flooded seaside hotels are technically still next to the beach, lines of trenches demarcate the nation's borders, and agricultural science is the most competitive subject at universities. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chingistans's national animal is the Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Chingistans is ranked 130,554^th in the world and 156^th in Britannia for Nicest Citizens, with 13 average smiles per day.
