The Commonwealth of Chronus is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The People with a fair hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, unlimited-speed roads, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 1.487 billion Chronusians 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 medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kairos. The average income tax rate is 62.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Chronusian economy, worth 198 trillion Kroner a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 133,347 Kroner, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Robotic spouses prove to be just as imperfect as flesh and blood ones, saying "don't do anything that The People wouldn't do" doesn't exclude a great deal, vanity is the constant enemy of dignity, and commuter vessels have trouble staying afloat due to increased passengers. Crime is totally unknown. Chronus's national animal is the Black Cat, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Secularism.

Chronus is ranked 9,646^th in the world and 176^th in Europe for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 11,668.96 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
