The Kingdom of Chypas is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and aversion to nipples. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 2.212 billion Chypáns have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Atzura. The average income tax rate is 31.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Chypán economy, worth 142 trillion Dólars a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Basket Weaving, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 64,484 Dólars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Large sections of Chypas have been named national reserves to protect the native tribes living there, rude retail employees are now even ruder homeless panhandlers, whenever pilots have to bail out the government bails out their company, and expensive lawyers are hired to defend citizens in court for public urination charges against their pets. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chypas's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Chypas is ranked 36,088^th in the world and 666^th in the South Pacific for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 5,241.39 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
