The Holy Empire of Big Swiss Chez is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its complete lack of prisons, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 536 million Big Swiss Chezians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cheeseotopia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 53.8%.

The thriving Big Swiss Chezian economy, worth 48.3 trillion Chezos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 90,128 Chezos, with the richest citizens earning 6.9 times as much as the poorest.

Political activists are routinely executed, army doctors who come under attack defend themselves by using stethoscopes like nunchaku, vile black smog from coal power plants has enveloped several major urban centres, and organ donation rates have hit a new low. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Big Swiss Chez's national animal is the Chezzy bird, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Big Swiss Chez is ranked 101,785^th in the world and 1^st in The Chrono Sphere for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 3,159.66 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
