The Empire of Crownz Capital is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its frequent executions, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 270 million Crownz Capitalians 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 51.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Crownz Capitalian economy, worth 15.3 trillion Gold Platelets a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 56,531 Gold Platelets, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Diplomats shake hands with their right and hide a poison dagger in their left, uploading purple prose to social media earns a place on a government watchlist, a surprising number of police officers have been arrested for Lion sacrifices, and flipping a coin to make a decision leads to a referral to Gambling Addiction Services. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Crownz Capital's national animal is the Lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Crownz Capital is ranked 192,832^nd in the world and 4,556^th in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 45 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
