The Federation of Chimms is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by 001 with an even hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, state-planned economy, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 13.112 billion Chimmsians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Estergan. The average income tax rate is 85.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Chimmsian economy, worth a remarkable 2,405 trillion Chimm Marks 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 significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 183,421 Chimm Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation was recently voted "most likely to betray its allies", sweat stains are proof of political acumen, diaper-wrapped shawarma is a fan-favorite, and lobotomised jaywalkers can barely ambulate let alone repeat their offences. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chimms's national animal is the Plorgus, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Chimms is ranked 16,582^nd in the world and 1,054^th in Lazarus for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 3,805.65 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
