The United Kingdom of Chakara is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory vegetarianism, and lack of airports. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 3.26 billion Chakarans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chakara City. The average income tax rate is 96.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Chakaran economy, worth 497 trillion pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 152,530 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The saying "when pigs fly" has been changed to "when the lights work", modelling agencies send their clients to work in nursing homes, government officials who do an offal job get smoked, and Leader's reputation is hard as nails. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chakara's national animal is the swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Chakara is ranked 3,805^th in the world and 98^th in The East Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 96.26 on the Human Development Index.
