The Allied States of Chillen is a huge, genial nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working population of 832 million Chillians 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 Welfare, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 39.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Chillenian economy, worth 46.8 trillion USDS a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 56,295 USDS, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Pop sensation "Jack and the Holograms" is storming the charts, it can be a real jungle in a modern courtroom, over a third of the seats in sports stadiums have been removed to make room for female-only commodes, and the new airport at Mr. Giles' farm is panicking his sheep. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chillen's national animal is the Sloth, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Chillen is ranked 84,768^th in the world and 3^rd in The Holy Republic Of Pierce VIII for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 2,466.37 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
