The Republic of Croccanzia is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its public floggings, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-working, democratic population of 967 million Croccanzians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tolè City. The average income tax rate is 53.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Croccanzian economy, worth 87.6 trillion Nuggets a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 90,616 Nuggets, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Women who walk into the ladies' changing room are accused of being Peeping Toms, out-of-work actors say they can't complain, generals have trouble barking orders over the sound of thundering artillery, and Leader's luxurious new home has been designated as a protected cultural heritage site. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Croccanzia's national animal is the Phonix, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Croccanzia is ranked 64,773^rd in the world and 3,649^th in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 70.9 law-abiding acts per hour.
