The Empire of Kryosis is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by He Whose Name Is Awesome with an iron fist, and notable for its frequent executions, ban on automobiles, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 29.404 billion Kryosi 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kriminis. The average income tax rate is 80.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Kryosi economy, worth a remarkable 4,502 trillion Kryosi Nyxxes 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 a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 an impressive 153,112 Kryosi Nyxxes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Police officers that upset their bosses get assigned to 24 hour stakeouts of bike sheds, most foreigners can't name the leader of Kryosis, the government is purchasing vast amounts of palm oil for plastics production, and the national anthem's only purpose is to inflate He Whose Name Is Awesome's ever-expanding ego. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Kryosis's national animal is the Wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is The Cult of Awesome.

Kryosis is ranked 17,244th in the world and 3rd in Anaia for Most Patriotic, with 50.79 flags saluted per person per day.
