Chaldea is a landlocked nation in Central Mesopotamia. It is considered by much the "centre of culture on the Middle East", as historical re-building and the Modern Renaissance are stronger there than on any other place of Mesopotamia (the re-building of Babylon, including the Ishtar Gate is a great example of that). It also is on constant struggle with the nearby rump Republic of Iraq (since Baghdad is owned by them in an awkward peninsula that stretches into Chaldean territory), and Shi'ite Persia, (because of its treatment of Zoroastrians, an important minority of Chaldea, and because the Shi'ites own the area of Sumer, which Chaldea claims).
