The Political Chaos of Chobotan is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Grand Treasurer Daano Waltreissen with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, public floggings, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 3.365 billion Chobotanians 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.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Plamet. The average income tax rate is 83.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Chobotanian economy, worth 356 trillion Ⱥ akchboes a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 105,981 Ⱥ akchboes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

It is cheaper to die in the wilderness than to survive, tuba players are paid to quietly whisper into their instruments, the subway is dead quiet in early afternoons, and employers are gradually adapting to the alien premise of paying wages to their workers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chobotan's national animal is the purple Dogmouth, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Kafli.

Chobotan is ranked 9,754^th in the world and 103^rd in Europeia for Highest Food Quality, scoring 152.64 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
