The Military Junta of Chalistine is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Dendro Umbra with a fair hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, smutty television, and digital currency. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 4.996 billion Chalistinians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Peridson. The average income tax rate is 66.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Chalistinean economy, worth 584 trillion Rugleses a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 116,997 Rugleses, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The bum of Dendro Umbra has been voted the most recognisable in Chalistine, most ambassadors from Chalistine retire only a few years after being appointed, minority children spend hours bussing to schools miles away from home, and veteran cops reminisce over their heavy armor days. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chalistine's national animal is the Axolotl, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Catholic Christianity.

Chalistine is ranked 132,895^th in the world and 168^th in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 855.3 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
