The Admirable Grand Duchy of Cytadela is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Jolene Crescenzo with an iron fist, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 3.203 billion Cytadelans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Paeonia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 51.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Cytadelan economy, worth 414 trillion Regal Notes a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 129,453 Regal Notes, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 407,871 per year while the poor average 31,415, a ratio of 13.0 to 1.

Jolene Crescenzo lights cigars with a hundred-Regal Note bill, school children declare that teachers "may confiscate our toys but they can never take our FREEDOM", houses and businesses are bulldozed to make way for ever-expanding cemeteries, and any body part that can be cut off a person is no longer considered to be their property. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Cytadela's national animal is the Corsican red deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Cytadela is ranked 12,521^st in the world and 221^st in Europe for Most Developed, scoring 88.12 on the Human Development Index.
