The Nomadic Legion of Cruciland is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Keysar David Aryelev with an even hand, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, vat-grown people, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 22.516 billion Crucilandians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kokhavkiryah. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Crucilandian economy, worth an astonishing 21,889 trillion Niqudas 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, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. 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 a breathtaking 972,163 Niqudas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The line of people waiting for a visa interview in front of foreign embassies is typically a mile long, ghost regiments exist only on paper, sneezing pedestrians are grabbed by alley-lurking doctors, and the nationalised Arms Manufacturing Industry is not interested in making weapons. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cruciland's national animal is the sabertoothed cheetah, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Historical Christianity.

Cruciland is ranked 178,697th in the world and 76th in Fifth Empire for Most Stationary, with 80.11854594632 days.
