The Good Flag of Craiolia is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by President Mor Boor with an even hand, and notable for its national health service, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, humorless population of 8.387 billion Craiolians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bandar. The average income tax rate is 93.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Craiolian economy, worth a remarkable 1,653 trillion Craiols a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 197,178 Craiols, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All government communication requires the imprimatur of the Truth Police, torture is illegal, the Fashion Channel can only be viewed on widescreen TVs, and dinosaur breeders have a yabba-dabba-doo gay old time in Craiolia. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Craiolia's national animal is the Green Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Craiolia is ranked 94,204th in the world and 565th in the West Pacific for Most Stationary, with 484.0940999018 days.
