The Empire of Cry Nerow is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Nerow with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, otherworldly petting zoo, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.993 billion Nerowians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nerowtopia. The average income tax rate is 28.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Cry Nerowian economy, worth 489 trillion Nerowian Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Retail. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 163,692 Nerowian Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Jennifer Government is a bestseller, they say that Nerowians made a dessert and called it peace, children are often observed making 'sand angels' in bunkers, and the weather in Nerowtopia is always 'pigeons with a chance of droppings'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Cry Nerow's national animal is the Buffalo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Agnosticism.

Cry Nerow is ranked 3,548th in the world and 145th in Balder for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 13,116.18 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
