The Kingdom of Cherex is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Erin Pallus with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, parental licensing program, and national health service. The compassionate population of 2.366 billion Cherexians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Allison. The average income tax rate is 95.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Cherexian economy, worth 331 trillion Cils 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 significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 140,172 Cils, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The general public only knows their favorite politician's first name, hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, organ donation is compulsory, and stony-faced ratings board panelists are unamused by free lap dances. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cherex's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Lemonism.

Cherex is ranked 327,402^nd in the world and 1,373^rd in Europeia for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -15.13 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
