The Isle of Chayym is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by Lady Malka Kosmin with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 8.861 billion Chayymians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zeldis. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.7%.

The very strong Chayymian economy, worth 573 trillion barzels a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. Average income is 64,673 barzels, with the richest citizens earning 9.4 times as much as the poorest.

Lady Malka Kosmin has just been declared ruler of Chayym in an international press conference, Tehom-Elism has been named as Chayym's national religion, politicians "baring all" for the camera isn't always a figure of speech, and ignorance is considered a politically desirable quality. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Chayym's national animal is the barracuda, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Tehom-Elism.

Chayym is ranked 43,705^th in the world and 1^st in The Shadows for Nicest Citizens, with 18.02 average smiles per day.
