The State of Cromethius is a gargantuan, orderly nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The cynical population of 18.31 billion Cromethiusians 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 73.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but stagnant Cromethiusian economy, worth 73.6 trillion betales a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Pizza Delivery, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 4,018 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
A nation-wide cull of deer is in effect, the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, military spending is on the increase, and Cromethius has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cromethius's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Cromethius is ranked 108,070th in the world and 258th in United States of America for Most Primitive, scoring -24.9 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
