The Financial Services of Chase is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, complete absence of social welfare, and exploding hoverboards. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 2.431 billion Chaseans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.3%.

The thriving Chasean economy, worth 204 trillion dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 84,051 dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 358,726 per year while the poor average 12,649, a ratio of 28.4 to 1.

Bus ads propagandize causes ranging from sexual revolution to religious pogroms, the government has declared its commitment to multilateralism, school lockers are filled with fancy underwear, and male friends are often accompanied by a female relative in order to prove their 'straightness'. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low. Chase's national animal is the great white shark, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Chase is ranked 97,122^nd in the world and 3^rd in Chase for Highest Food Quality, scoring 23.63 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
