The New Cruor Federation of Technicaste is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Avakael with an iron fist, and renowned for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 28.597 billion Technicaens are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Acevedo. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 37.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Technicaen economy, worth a remarkable 1,817 trillion Halicarnassuses a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 63,571 Halicarnassuses, with the richest citizens earning 8.6 times as much as the poorest.

Teenagers claim that morning paper rounds are performance art, school uniforms are compulsory, older citizens lament over the loss of law and order, and citizens live in superstitious fear of the mysterious glowing clouds that float over Technicaste. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Technicaste's national animal is the White Phoenix, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Cruor.

Technicaste is ranked 10,116th in the world and 11th in Ordo Imperialia for Most Stationary, with 2,339.47337773608 days.
