The Empire of Chrisiants is a massive, socially progressive nation, renowned for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 1.931 billion enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Social Welfare, with areas such as Defence and Law & Order receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chrisiants City. The average income tax rate is 41%, but much higher for the wealthy. A small private sector is dominated by the Uranium Mining industry.

TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, a ban on unsolicited cold calling in all forms is in effect, Chrisiants has designated Chrisiants City as its capital city, and doves are considered a delicacy. Crime is moderate, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Chrisiants's national animal is the dove, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the water drop.

Chrisiants is ranked 77th in Scotland and 81,679th in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -2 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
