The Farming Outpost of Chive Historian is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its frequent executions, enslaved workforce, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.99 billion Jiucaian Rotenaplistanis are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Industry are also considered important. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 24.8%.

The thriving Jiucaian Rotenaplistaniani economy, worth 640 trillion Rotenaplistani Trade Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 106,900 Rotenaplistani Trade Dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 366,752 per year while the poor average 22,869, a ratio of 16.0 to 1.

The government tells its citizens to 'forgive and forget', the experimental sculpture "Overtures In Dried Rotenaplistani Aplix Dung" has been declared a national treasure, primary candidates are replaced if they fail to compliment Leader's hair, and poaching has been on the rise after animals from the nation's zoos were released into the wild. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chive Historian's national animal is the Rotenaplistani Aplix, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Chive Historian is ranked 290,633^rd in the world and 206^th in the rotenaples for Highest Drug Use, scoring 23.44 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
