The Republic of ChME5 is a colossal, socially progressive nation, renowned for its burgeoning bear population. The quiet, industrious population of 6.957 billion ChME5ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 28.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The ChME5ian economy, worth 213 trillion rubles a year, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Cheese Exports, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 30,626 rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.
It is illegal to make racist remarks in public, TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, surveillance cameras are banned, and ChME5ian watches list strained wrists as a common side effect. Crime is moderate. ChME5's national animal is the bear.
ChME5 is ranked 181,712th in the world and 6,686th in Suspicious for Most Corrupt Governments, with 2.7 kickbacks per hour.
