The ᴍᴀʀᴄʜɪᴏɴɪx ꜱɪʟᴠᴇʀ ᴅʀᴀɢᴏɴ of Old Chimore is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Aristophana with an iron fist, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 6.637 billion Old Chimoreans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 69.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Old Chimorean economy, worth 887 trillion K'ihs 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 Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 133,783 K'ihs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Diaper-wrapped shawarma is a fan-favorite, Aristophana isn't a national brand, the house always wins, and jaw strain is an increasingly common ailment. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Old Chimore's national animal is the Cockroach, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Old Chimore is ranked 129,433^rd in the world and 11^th in Merciam for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 2,059.92 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
