The Republic of Chabia Islands is a large, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its burgeoning leopard population. The quiet, industrious population of 127 million Chabia Islandsians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 17.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Chabia Islandsian economy, worth 6.64 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Book Publishing, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 52,256 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Commercial jingles are the nation's greatest export, politicians have been known to swim in pools filled with dollars, the constant playing of Merry Birthday on Chabia Islandsian radio has led to calls for the song to be classified as a crime against humanity, and paralegals spend all day Hewlett-Packing attorneys' law briefs. Crime is totally unknown. Chabia Islands's national animal is the leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Chabia Islands is ranked 94,136^th in the world and 1,452^nd in The North Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,278.74 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
