The Theocratic Republic of Cheremiss is a massive, orderly nation, notable for its anti-smoking policies, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.414 billion Cheremissians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Voskresensk. The average income tax rate is 55.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Cheremissian economy, worth 68.6 trillion rubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 48,515 rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Federal Council of Cheremiss has been announced as the new Head of State, warfare increasingly resembles a video game, a major religion has been named as Cheremiss's national religion, and the government has officially clarified that "wee on your hands to save time" does not count as proper hygiene. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cheremiss's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Cheremiss is ranked 58,177^th in the world and 34^th in Geopolity for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 532.22 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
