The Republic of Step aside CHEESE is a colossal, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 3.794 billion Step aside CHEESEians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, with Healthcare, Welfare, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.5%.

The strong Step aside CHEESEian economy, worth 166 trillion francs a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. Average income is 44,005 francs, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 283,616 per year while the poor average 2,758, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Crime is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Step aside CHEESE's national animal is the giraffe, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Step aside CHEESE is ranked 128,858^th in the world and 1^st in Peinda speindea for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 81.55 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
