The Kingdom of Cherex is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Erin Pallus with an even hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, frequent executions, and state-planned economy. The compassionate population of 2.418 billion Cherexians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Allison. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Cherexian economy, worth 342 trillion Cils 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 dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 141,398 Cils, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Fraternities are rejoicing at government-subsidized partying, the derisively named "Morlocks of Moria" futilely demand time in the sun, Cherexian tourists are encouraged to hand out spare condoms to locals while on vacation, and citizens are exhausted from weekly general elections. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cherex's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Lemonism.

Cherex is ranked 5,242^nd in the world and 42^nd in Europeia for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 9,426.82 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
