Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Free Land of Chris Hall is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by The Squish-lord with an iron fist, and notable for its keen interest in outer space. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 13.004 billion are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Commerce. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wherever the Squish-lord lives. The average income tax rate is 97%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Gambling industries.

Mining is the nation's most dangerous occupation, the Great Chris Hall Desert is reputedly the most uninhabitable place in the region, curtailed social programs have left many citizens bereft of any safety net, and the commercialisation of highly deadly weapons has instilled Chris Hall with a very polite populace. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Chris Hall's national animal is the free man, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is Money Money Money, and its currency is the money is redundant.

Chris Hall is ranked 21st in the West Pacific and 1,532nd in the world for Largest Public Sector, scoring 35 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
