The Democratic States of Chadegro is a huge, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 384 million Chadegroans 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 tiny government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 9.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Chadegroan economy, worth 26.3 trillion Reins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 68,543 Reins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Museums have more touchscreens on display than artifacts, a burger chain recently changed its name to Mack Donaldz for legal reasons, classes at Chadegro City University get canceled on Brancaland's Independence Day, and collisions between bicycles and carnival floats are on the rise. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Chadegro's national animal is the Chungus, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Chadegro is ranked 174,531^st in the world and 21^st in Selene for Most Extensive Civil Rights, with 34.91 Martin Luther King, Jr. Units.
