The Alien Invasion of Chocolate Fishies is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Most Exalted Chocolatey One with an even hand, and remarkable for its hatred of cheese. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 17.846 billion 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chocolatropolis. The average income tax rate is 71%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

Citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, the CFBI Channel Tunnel project is plagued by delays, citizens may cast their vote over the internet or phone, and bicyclists are banned from major roads. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chocolate Fishies's national animal is the Chocolate Fish, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is Church of the Favoured Fish, and its currency is the Chocolate Fish.

Chocolate Fishies is ranked 12th in New Zealand and 101,461st in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -17 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
