The Sovereign Order of Everlasting Crusade is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Hochmeister General with an iron fist, and notable for its public floggings, ban on automobiles, and hatred of cheese. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 18.807 billion Crusaders are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government stops and the rest of society begins, but it prioritizes Spirituality, although Law & Order, Environment, and Defense are also considered important, while Social Policy and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Antioch. The average income tax rate is 94.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Crusader economy, worth a remarkable 2,701 trillion Crosses a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Basket Weaving industry. Average income is an impressive 143,636 Crosses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Pro-democracy protesters are shot on sight by state police, goldfish are really living up to their name, in-cite-ment never happens at tea parties, and people are turning themselves into worm food. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Everlasting Crusade's national animal is the Lamb, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Yes.

Everlasting Crusade is ranked 331,946^th in the world and 17,742^nd in Balder for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -15.95 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
