The People's Republic of Communist Crackous is a colossal, genial nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 2.693 billion Communist Crackousians 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 tiny government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 6.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Communist Crackousian economy, worth 169 trillion Marks a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 62,892 Marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Clergy never mention brand names for fear of losing their government subsidies, board shorts have replaced board rooms, immersive video game experiences are interrupted by incessant disclaimer pop-ups, and for some reason the census focuses on daily banana ingestion and hourly quip rate. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Communist Crackous's national animal is the Wolverine, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Communist Crackous is ranked 303,497^th in the world and 2,970^th in the Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -5.48 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
