The The High Quality Strains of Chronic is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Marijuana Horticulturist with an even hand, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful population of 15.91 billion Chronicians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Marijuana Dispensary. The average income tax rate is 96.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Chronician economy, worth a remarkable 2,735 trillion ounces 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 led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 171,943 ounces, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The people elect the Supreme Court justices directly, the national guard is mobilized whenever a mother gets separated from her child at the mall, citizens are regularly arrested in queues for 'loitering', and the people are famous throughout the region for their perfect yellow teeth. Crime is totally unknown. Chronic's national animal is the river otter, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Chronic.

Chronic is ranked 1,514^th in the world and 1^st in Chronic for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 23,260.27 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
