The Empire of Chorica is a massive, orderly nation, notable for its compulsory military service, anti-smoking policies, and digital currency. The cynical population of 1.402 billion Choricans 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, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cóparo. The average income tax rate is 68.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Chorican economy, worth 88.2 trillion okas a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 62,903 okas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is using tax revenues to provide jobs for the poor, interest rates mysteriously drop whenever the CBC Governor goes house hunting, Big Agriculture has the government by the nuts, and genocide is seen as a topic best avoided in history lessons. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chorica's national animal is the Black Falcon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Chorica is ranked 179,671st in the world and 3,316th in the South Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 36.73 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
