The Dictatorship of Ch119 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its avant-garde cinema, prohibition of alcohol, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.739 billion Ch119ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Crotown. The average income tax rate is 45.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ch119ian economy, worth 609 trillion HRKS a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Information Technology. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 128,635 HRKS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Penurious citizens die from easily remedied ailments because they aren't 'taking enough initiative', the government is lending a hand to private industry, comedians who make offensive jokes have their ticket proceeds seized, and soup kitchens are the only things doing roaring business. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ch119's national animal is the Canis Lupus, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ch119 is ranked 235,911th in the world and 105th in Avril Lavigne Nation for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -5.02 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
