The Rogue Nation of Creuthe is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by President Sches Tasverwar with an iron fist, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, compulsory military service, and fear of technology. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 19.853 billion Creutheans 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 enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chakin. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 75.5%.

The all-consuming Creuthean economy, worth a remarkable 2,011 trillion Rothies a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 101,320 Rothies, with the richest citizens earning 5.8 times as much as the poorest.

Resident physicians are said to have a silver scalpel in their hands, blue bloods are welcome in Creuthe, Creuthe is sometimes referred to as the global janitor, and the public are enjoying a royal flush of tax cuts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Creuthe's national animal is the gazelle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Creuthe is ranked 84,328^th in the world and 3,020^th in Balder for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 2,671.87 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
