The Republic of Crantonia is a huge, safe nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 216 million Crantonians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 21.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Crantonian economy, worth 12.3 trillion Crantonian Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 57,006 Crantonian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People caught mistreating Crantonia's flag generally wind up in a great deal of pain, any body part that can be cut off a person is no longer considered to be their property, stranded mountaineers can watch livestreamed footage of their rescues, and shady doctors seem to have impeccable records. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Crantonia's national animal is the Crantonian Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Crantonia is ranked 166,371^st in the world and 3,037^th in the South Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 755.51 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
