The Federation of Chumara is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Imperator Duckus Maxis VII with an even hand, and notable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, complete lack of prisons, and aversion to nipples. The hard-nosed population of 1.326 billion Chumarans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chumorov. The average income tax rate is 35.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Chumaran economy, worth 156 trillion Trigoes a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Furniture Restoration, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 118,322 Trigoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Gated communities have guards to keep their residents in, polling place volunteers are suddenly opening a huge number of offshore bank accounts, extraordinary tribunals try accused financial criminals, and it is believed that belligerence is a passing phase foreign leaders will soon outgrow. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Chumara's national animal is the Duck, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Duckism.

Chumara is ranked 12,204^th in the world and 2^nd in The Internationale for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 76,554.39 Standard Monetary Units.
