The Free Land of Chipolte Island is a huge, safe nation, notable for its daily referendums, state-planned economy, and soft-spoken computers. The hard-nosed, devout population of 364 million Chipolte Islandians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Spirituality, and Education. The average income tax rate is 23.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Chipolte Islandian economy, worth 21.0 trillion Tortilla Chips a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is 57,631 Tortilla Chips, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Roads are often attended by round-the-clock construction crews, the government has declared its commitment to multilateralism, hundreds of subterranean tunnels are being built as part of "Project Morlock", and graverobbers claim they're acting within the interest of 'scientific preservation'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chipolte Island's national animal is the Chicken, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Chipolte Island is ranked 64,348^th in the world and 9^th in Burge Classroom for Most Authoritarian, with 1,465.62 milliStalins.
