The Chicness of Chik is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Chic McChique with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, avant-garde cinema, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 21.516 billion Chikans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cheapdale. The average income tax rate is 71.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Chikian economy, worth a remarkable 1,669 trillion checks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 77,575 checks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.
Every product goes through extensive safety-testing by the government, libraries are replacing history books and classic novels with technical manuals and trades directories to match the nation's changing demands, the justice of Chik is considered superior to that of other nations, and tourists are denied entry because of a distant relative married to a Lilliputian. Crime is relatively low. Chik's national animal is the Chik chicken, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Chikstafariansim.
Chik is ranked 3,703rd in the world and 3rd in Freshness for Most Stationary, with 3,598.70603016 days.
