The Draconian Monarchy of Kr0ssia is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Princess Celeste with an iron fist, and notable for its state-planned economy, compulsory military service, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 8.061 billion Krossats are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Education is also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Esseda. The average income tax rate is 80.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Krossic economy, worth a remarkable 1,409 trillion kronor a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 174,852 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Tax avoidance is a serious affair, blind dates tend to result in bruised shins, actively encouraging climate change is helping reduce winter fuel costs, and the nation is wading into dangerous waters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kr0ssia's national animal is the raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Dhravok Zenkitä.

Kr0ssia is ranked 5,823rd in the world and 386th in Osiris for Most Corrupt Governments, with 208.11 kickbacks per hour.
