The Dictatorship of Kronars is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its parental licensing program, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 349 million Kronarsians are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.

The relatively small, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 19.7%.

The Kronarsian economy, worth 20.4 trillion kronor a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 58,530 kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

Dreams of entering the Super League have been relegated to the history books, there is a thriving underground gay scene, modern readers say a story is worthless without hyperlinked footnotes and editable wiki format, and motorcycle riders are required to wear so much gear they've been nicknamed "Stay Pufts". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Kronars's national animal is the capybara, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kronars is ranked 199,000^th in the world and 7,920^th in the South Pacific for Smartest Citizens, with 21.5 quips per hour.
