The State of Chapleou is a gargantuan, orderly nation, remarkable for its enforced nudity, restrictive gun laws, and suspicion of poets. The cynical, humorless population of 27.412 billion Chapleouans 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 large, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 35.8%.

The Chapleouan economy, worth 952 trillion betales a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Pizza Delivery, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 34,744 betales, with the richest citizens earning 5.0 times as much as the poorest.

Employers may fire workers without giving any reason, customs turn away those considered to have an unfavourable ethnicity, the police crack down on tax evaders without mercy, and Chapleou has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chapleou's national animal is the deer.

Chapleou is ranked 190,486^th in the world and 1^st in Cape Town for Lowest Crime Rates, with 57.54 law-abiding acts per hour.
