The Republic of Chitinsky District is a huge, genial nation, notable for its ritual sacrifices, disturbing lack of elderly people, and daily referendums. The compassionate, devout population of 514 million Chitinsky Districtians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 44.6%.

The thriving Chitinsky Districtian economy, worth 34.9 trillion Ducats a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 67,948 Ducats, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 221,745 per year while the poor average 15,663, a ratio of 14.2 to 1.

Artists from across the nation compete to renovate the restrooms of old government buildings, a murderous reputation can revitalise a flagging celebrity career, high school bands practice by moonlight, and 'Bearnado 6: You Gotta Be Kidding Me' is this summer's top-grossing movie. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chitinsky District's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Chitinsky District is ranked 246,928^th in the world and 530^th in Novaya Zemlya for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -4.69 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
