The Free Land of Chalkedon is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by FranciscaBenedita with an even hand, and notable for its national health service, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 3.633 billion Chalkedonians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chalkida. The average income tax rate is 88.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The Chalkedonian economy, worth 278 trillion chalks a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 76,576 chalks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The nation's school children are fluent in Klingon but lack basic mathematical skills, the government has strong opinions about what goes into your bodily orifices, the regional delicacy of chocolate bombes is deadlier than an unexploded bomb, and the government is hoping that medical aid will speak louder than human rights abuses. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chalkedon's national animal is the black cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Free Religion.
Chalkedon is ranked 6,242nd in the world and 290th in Osiris for Most Cultured, scoring 149 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
