The Republic of Chorfania is a very large, safe nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 155 million Chorfanians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 9.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Chorfanian economy, worth 8.19 trillion lire a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 52,839 lire, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The sanitised and dull music festivals of Chorfania are famed for their reasonable volume levels, biotech companies are fined if their jumbled genetic sequences look too familiar, basket-weaving is the nation's latest fad, and some say Leader has gone MAD after authorizing the development of apocalyptic biological weapons. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Chorfania's national animal is the lion.

Chorfania is ranked 82,756^th in the world and 106^th in Socialists for Safest, scoring 89.77 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
