The District of Chelan is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its complete lack of public education, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 25.242 billion Chelanians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.0%.

The very strong Chelanian economy, worth 934 trillion aurums a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Pizza Delivery, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 37,003 aurums, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 251,575 per year while the poor average 1,988, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Voting is voluntary. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Chelan's national animal is the bovina, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Chelan is ranked 288,245^th in the world and 10^th in Washington for Lowest Crime Rates, with 34.52 law-abiding acts per hour.
