The Democratic States of Artificial Chimore System is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, ritual sacrifices, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.317 billion Artificial Chimore Systemians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 70.4%.
The frighteningly efficient Artificial Chimore Systemian economy, worth 490 trillion Freedom Units a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 147,910 Freedom Units, with the richest citizens earning 5.3 times as much as the poorest.
The country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, a newly discovered small mammal's name translates into Artificial Chimore Systemian as 'your finger, you fool', visitors to Artificial Chimore System are microchipped and must be escorted by an Artificial Chimore Systemian soldier - even to the bathroom, and the needs of the living outweigh the needs of the dead. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Artificial Chimore System's national animal is the Democrat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Artificial Chimore System is ranked 157,894th in the world and 2,959th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 1,674.72 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
