The Holy Empire of Chavaria is a massive, economically powerful nation, ruled by President Armen Armenyan with an even hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons. Its compassionate, hard-working population of 2.008 billion enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Commerce, Education, and Healthcare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chavar City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 79%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Tourism industry, followed by Book Publishing and Automobile Manufacturing.

The government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid, tourists outnumber citizens two to one, it is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws, and photographers have to apply for a license to photograph President Armen Armenyan. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chavaria's national animal is the Chavarian Black lion, and its currency is the Rom.

Chavaria is ranked 87th in Europe and 954th in the world for Most Influential, scoring 156 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
