The People's Cheesy Republic of Cheesystan is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Minos Prime with an even hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, free-roaming dinosaurs, and otherworldly petting zoo. The compassionate, cheerful population of 6.796 billion Cheddarians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nur Goudan. The average income tax rate is 83.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Cheddarian economy, worth a remarkable 1,143 trillion Cheddars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 168,324 Cheddars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Kindhearted Cheddarians generously pay taxes for citizens of other countries, lobotomies haven't been the same after the practice was severed, emergency responders spend more time in the air than giving air, and citizens re-mortgage their homes to buy lottery tickets. Crime is totally unknown. Cheesystan's national animal is the Cow, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Cheesyism.

Cheesystan is ranked 148,382^nd in the world and 419^th in Europe for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,043.59 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
