The Colonial Ambitions of Rodent of Chipmunk is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Dalé with an iron fist, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, complete lack of prisons, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 7.25 billion Chipmunkians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Spirituality, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Corn Field 6279. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 31.1%.

The very strong Chipmunkian economy, worth 443 trillion Corn Kernels a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. Average income is 61,204 Corn Kernels, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 209,058 per year while the poor average 13,180, a ratio of 15.9 to 1.

The military is slashing spending on conventional arms and diverting it to spending on prosthetic arms, diplomats shake hands with their right and hide a poison dagger in their left, the arms industry is backed by government subsidies and harsh anti-protest laws are in place, and the military is plagued with unethical researchers. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Chipmunk's national animal is the Gregarious Giaganticus Rodentia, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Violetism.

Chipmunk is ranked 236,945^th in the world and 1^st in BLM for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -4.91 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
