The United Federation of Charellia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Chief Executor Calvin Matheson with a fair hand, and notable for its national health service, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 29.941 billion Charellians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government prioritizes Education, with Welfare, Social Policy, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Union City. The average income tax rate is 58.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Charellian economy, worth a remarkable 2,473 trillion Unials a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 82,604 Unials, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Pulling weeds is seen as a threat to national security, any body part that can be cut off a person is no longer considered to be their property, not many kids know Shakespeare's Hamlet but most of them have seen unofficial sequel Hamlet III - The Search For Osric, and older citizens lament over the loss of law and order. Crime is totally unknown. Charellia's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Charellia is ranked 267,507^th in the world and 2^nd in Tagwaran for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -5.14 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
