The Swashbuckling Privateer of Chava Cal is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Capt'n Vostok with an iron fist, and notable for its strictly enforced bedtime, free-roaming dinosaurs, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 16.495 billion Antarctican Pirate Penguins are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Administration, with Industry, Healthcare, and Public Transport also on the agenda, while Welfare isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pirate Supership. The average income tax rate is 84.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Antarctican economy, worth a remarkable 3,106 trillion Antarctican doubloons 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Retail, Uranium Mining, Furniture Restoration, 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 188,314 Antarctican doubloons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Park rangers struggle to deal with a rash of stolen pic-a-nic baskets, millions of Antarctican Pirate Penguins are excellent swimmers, light entertainment shows are light on actual entertainment, and all gamers have been drafted into the military despite their lack of upper body strength. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Chava Cal's national animal is the Antarctican mermaid, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Rum.

Chava Cal is ranked 14,627^th in the world and 2^nd in Penguia for Most Secular, with 83.39 Atheism Rate.
