The Chromatik State of Chromatika is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Keri Wyse Aart with an even hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, anti-smoking policies, and avant-garde cinema. The compassionate, democratic population of 14.986 billion Chromatiks are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rochester. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Chromatik economy, worth a remarkable 1,679 trillion NMS a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 112,073 NMS, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Feuilletons can only be deciphered with a Galliennais dictionary, recent events have left citizens both shaken and stirred, beggars lack pockets for spare change, and taxpayers cringe whenever someone brings up the Former Antagonist Reparations Treaty. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chromatika's national animal is the Squirrel, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Chromatika is ranked 282,365^th in the world and 67^th in Anaia for Greatest Rich-Poor Divides, with 1.25 Rich To Poor Income Ratio.
