The Armed Republic of CR32 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, keen interest in outer space, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.759 billion CR32ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 79.6%.
The frighteningly efficient CR32ian economy, worth 889 trillion cards a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 154,504 cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.
Party-lovers often change religions just for the weekend, several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation, the CBI Channel Tunnel project is plagued by delays, and charity fundraisers often resemble minstrel shows. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. CR32's national animal is the legendary, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
CR32 is ranked 263,588th in the world and 1,075th in Two for Highest Food Quality, scoring 7.08 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
