The Three Islands of Chum Chum is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Karkatta-dea Hanolan with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.336 billion Chummies are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, although Environment, Healthcare, and Administration are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chu-aina'oki. The average income tax rate is 83.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Chum Chumian economy, worth 126 trillion Robles a year, is highly specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 94,132 Robles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Nose plugs are the latest Chum Chumian fashion accessory, getting an abortion takes less hassle than writing a letter, all statues and paintings of dogs are being destroyed to avoid offending cat-lovers, and sex education has become an intricate maze of stick figures and complex metaphors. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chum Chum's national animal is the Scamper, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Church of the Lady of the Rainbow.

Chum Chum is ranked 9,234^th in the world and 237^th in the South Pacific for Longest Average Lifespans, with 91.76 years.
