The Community of Crazy Guggenheim is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Joe the Bartender with an even hand, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 2.642 billion Crazy Guggenheimians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.
The relatively small, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Public Transport, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bellevue Psychiatric Hospital. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.2%.
The thriving Crazy Guggenheimian economy, worth 199 trillion Jiggers a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Soda Sales, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 75,346 Jiggers, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 259,493 per year while the poor average 16,025, a ratio of 16.2 to 1.
Unemployed accountants keep double-entry ledgers of their benefit claims, older citizens lament over the loss of law and order, the children of Crazy Guggenheim are often remarked upon for their cheery attitude to extreme violence, and homeless people can be found sleeping on streets in front of unoccupied second homes. Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Crazy Guggenheim's national animal is the Bar Fly, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Inebriation.
Crazy Guggenheim is ranked 256,201st in the world and 880th in the Outback for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -4.38 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
