The Republic of Chavante is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Galvan with an even hand, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, infamous sell-swords, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 8.334 billion Chavanteans enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chacarrama. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Chavantean economy, worth a remarkable 2,322 trillion Medals a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Retail, Soda Sales, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 278,659 Medals, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,294,603 per year while the poor average 36,045, a ratio of 35.9 to 1.

Medical lawsuits are out of control, Violetist maidens who fall for an outsider must leave their violet light districts in shame, shopkeepers use microscopes to verify the authenticity of banknotes, and schools have extensive counseling programs for troubled students. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Chavante's national animal is the Owl, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is All religion.

Chavante is ranked 24,815^th in the world and 3^rd in Selene for Largest Populations, with 8.33 billion Capita.
