The Republic of Chimorehampton is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, parental licensing program, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 421 million Chimorehamptonians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large government prioritizes Law & Order, although Industry, Defense, and Administration are also considered important, while Environment and Welfare are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 48.5%.

The all-consuming Chimorehamptonian economy, worth 29.6 trillion Golds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 70,304 Golds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 218,761 per year while the poor average 17,372, a ratio of 12.6 to 1.

Women across the country are tying the knot, retiring citizens are dragged away in the middle of the night by mysterious men in black suits, government reports are now used to teach toddlers to read, and drugs containing the compound "oleum de serpens" are being sold to cancer patients. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chimorehampton's national animal is the Dragon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Chimorehampton is ranked 254,149th in the world and 562nd in Chimore for Largest Black Market, with 124 billion Standard Monetary Units.
